I think not - I do "arsehole" very well.

you may find the new owner is liable, should have had a look at the readings.

What should I do if the vehicle's RUC licence has expired!

The Road User Charges Act 2012 requires a vehicle that is subject to RUC to have a valid RUC licence when a new owner takes possession. If it doesn't, the seller is committing an offence, and the new owner becomes liable for the outstanding fees. It's recommended that unpaid RUC is taken into account when establishing the sale price. The NZTA doesn't become involved in these negotiations.

Thers the answer from the NZTA

Thanks for this - Bashfulbro may be right - I may be correcting it myself - time will tell.

So what it says is, the seller is committing an offense BUT the new owner is liable. Stupid.
