If buying a used van privately how can I check that is fully owned by the seller and not still under finance?

VSR is a vicroads body that you can ring to check there is no money owing on the vehicle or to make sure they are the owner of the vehicle they are selling its not fullproof but does do majority of checks for ya. The Vic number is 131171 maybe try them or they can give ya your states equivelent
