I was hoping some of the U.S roadster owners could help me with this
question.
It seems as though our laws in Canada might be slightly different when it
comes
to ownership and registration of vehicles.
First my situation. There are a couple of cars which I am looking at possibly
purchasing from the state of Washington and importing them to Canada.
Both owners tell me that their vehicles are clear title and but they also tell
me that
the current title is under the previous owners name.
I'm having trouble understanding this because if I were to purchase a vehicle
from
someone I would have to register it under my name before I turned around and
sold it
to someone else. How do I know that the vehicle isn't stolen?
What can I do to protect myself? Shouldn't these owners title the vehicle
under their
name before attempting to sell it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Dazed and confused in Canada....
