I'm looking at buying a car and the registration is 6 months expired, do I have to pay the back date when I change ownership or does the old owner!

old owner pays rego to day he sold it you pay from day you are registered. roaduser charges however carry on to new owner.

Aword of advice, OP --
if you are not going to use the car for at least three months after you buy it, put it on hold immediately -- then it will not cost you those three months of tax/licence.
You CAN put up to twelve months exemption on, and re-licence after three months, there will be no penalty.

also, dont tell the old owner that they are going to get a bill, some get gutted.easier to deal with when you're not there and the deal is done
