It's for a bike i'm about to re-register.

Thanks in advance

Lol... i thought you of all people would know. I can either pay to do it online right now, or wait a few hours and get it done for free.

Go to http://www.carfax.co.nz -- it was posted up on here a while back, everybody had fun looking at their mileage histories for free. Does it do enough for what you want?

Yep :). Although I have noticed a few typos on the site, but they're usually obvious.

Either that, or a new speedo was put on when a new motor was installed.

makes me wonder if I should purchase the report for my bike... but then it doesnt say 'there was damage-to get report buy now'....
so could be a waste of $10 lol

the massive adjustment are probably fat fingered mechanics typing the wrong mileage in than it being corrected the next wof

Mehh, my F100 (hot-rod truck) showed NO WOF inspection dates from '74 thru to'96 and I'm SURE I never went that long without a WOF!!!

But shee-it, it shows a gross weight of 1,999kg!:blink:

Last time weighed t with full tanks of fuel it was 2,080kg!

That's quite light for a Sporty, are they using more aluminium these days instead of concrete for the frames?

Have you really owned your F100 that long? That would've been the hot ticket as a young fella in the 70s :laugh:

Yup, bought it in '74 - flash-as paint job but tired mechanicals. (Ain't that always the way with young guys and cars?).
Goes a bit better now but always want it to go faster, sadly I have to remember that at over two tonnes it takes some grunt just to get it moving:sweatdrop.

Checked out a couple of cars I've owned in the past and the "odometer decrease -99,703.00" often coincides with the mileage (kilometreage) passing a 100,000 mark. Perhaps a bug in the website or the way speedo data is entered? :Oops:

Yeah I see my written off TL1000 back in '03 was bought by someone and put back on the road in 2005!

It's no bug, it's just the raw data from the WoF checks. Same as a VIR etc. Simply shows the value on the odometer at the time of the WoF -- you're supposed to interpret it yourself.
