purchase date for a car without purchasing a report from the likes of carjam!thanks in advance.

Try the question again. Are you after the date it was licensed, the date it expires, or the date it last changed hands!

ally-oop, Oct 17, 10:36am
The purchase date of the most recent licence-i.e 'registration' period.

If it's not your car, ask the owner. If it is your car, call NZTA.

Its a rental car and when i returned it i noticed the lic label has expired by around 2 weeks so was wondering if i wasted the money i spent on insurance as the insurance company couldve wormed their way out of a claim and the rental company tell me that it was licenced but they "forgot to put the label on it" (kinda sounds like a tui advert.)if the car wasnt 1000 km away i'd just look on the label for the purchase date and time.

the insurance co cant worm their way out of it unless 'not having a current license' contributed to the accident.

Surely you have more important things to waste your time on!

Yes they can weasel there way out of it the car has no rego therefore not allowed on the road anyone seen the treads on getting a parking ticket for no rego

You need to read the insurance reform act. An insurance co CAN NOT decline a claim on a vehicle on the basis of not having rego

A) i've never been in a situation where the insurance company had any opportunity to even try to weasel out, so i couldn't be sure-not to mention that i don't trust them not to, combined with the fact that i seem to recall hearing of at least one case where they did avoid paying out due to expired lic/'reg'
B) it's potentially worth in the 3 figures to me in terms of a refund if it wasnt lic'd for duration of my hireage
C) i do appreciate any helpful and qualified/educated input but with respect, i'll decide what i spend my time on
D) if someone with money possibly at stake is 'wasting their time', what could be said of others' time spent on thread!

Thanks though :-)

splinter67, Oct 18, 5:32am
woodrow where dose it say if you drive an illegal car they will cover you
IF your car dose not have a rego it is not allowed on the road therefore you are committing a crime no insurance why dont you try it cant wait for you to come back crying or how about you ring your insurance company instead of spouting rubbish on here

splinter67, Oct 18, 5:34am
that would be you dont give advise you know nothing about

therafter1, Oct 18, 6:07am
One of my sons wrote a dunnydore off recently with no WOF and CVL and the claim was settled in full by AA Insurance without a problem . what say you to that ! . or do you think they made an exception for my son for some reason !

splinter67, Oct 18, 6:13am
Sorry but I dont beleive you if the car was on the road he was commiting a crime can you show us some facts or do we have to go on hearsay because my claim was refused because my car should not have been on the road two days out on the rego

laneyjan, Oct 18, 7:56am
ciminals whilst committing a crime and hurt themselves get ACC dont they!falling through skylights while up on the roof looking for an easy way to break in!

You are entitled to believe whatever you like buster. What I have posted above is the truth. I have no intention of providing you with anything. What I have stated is not hearsay as it has come from the mouth of the horse. Hearsay is something said by someone else that they ???heard??

a.woodrow, Oct 18, 4:13pm
Well this explains why you feel so strongly about it. Your insurance co denied the claim knowing many people aren't familiar with what can and cannot invalidate a claim, and I'm sure they play on that as often as they can as it's more money for them. The most basic way to explain the legislation is that an insurance company cannot deny a claim for something that has no bearing on the accident. not having rego doesn't make you have an accident, same with no wof. However if they found the vehicle was not up to wof standard and that contributed to/caused the accident, then they could use that to deny a claim

therafter1, Oct 18, 4:24pm
I believe they can also decline the claim on a vehicle with a current WOF if the vehicle is not up to WOF standard and the existing faults are deemed to have been a contributing factor.

a.woodrow, Oct 18, 4:36pm
Yep, on the basis that your are expected to maintain your vehicle to a roadworthy standard

splinter67, Oct 18, 4:54pm
