haha sorry but i am from the states and we have titles for our cars....

i bought a car from canada and the guy is telling me that there is no title paper for cars there that when i buy it from him all i would get is abill of sale....

so my question is if you guys sell a car over there what do you do?

 

You take the VIN and bill of sale to the insurance company/licensing building and tell them you want to register it. Then, you register the car.
Once it has been safetyed of course.

 

/\ what he said!

 

thanks! so no actual writen title i can hold? lol

 

far as i know...its just a bill of sale.

the captain knows best

 

Yea, the only "title" i've ever seen is just on a pc screen at the place of insurance. It just says the VIN and current status of the vehicle (valid, wrecked, totaled, salvage etc.)

You should just need the VIN and the bill of sale. Cuz that's all we got!

Thanks cobalttuner!

 

i hope it works out for me over here in the states... i bought a car that was imported from japan to the guy who owned it there... now he is selling it to me...

 

Heh, the licensing system is different even from province to province. I had to show proof of insurance in order to file a "complaint" with the police in AB, i'm from Sask, so all our licensing/insurance stuff is one one ticket. I guess AB has more then just one because when i produced my insurance, she was still waiting for more pieces!

 

Yup, bill of sale. Only other thing that might be of some good is in most cases (or so for me) the previous owner would sign over the registration (there's an area in the back specifically for that).

 

in MA a title find is like 50 bucks

 

ya..in manitoba we have out license part with the picture...then another peice of paper that goes with it. haha

Any time Captain!

 

I makes my own bills of sale when I sell cars, jsut says it sold and the price and sign it, and away it goes. oh and include the vin on the paper.

 

the original registration of the vehicle can be signed and filled out on the back and used as a bill of sale, canadians dont use titles
