One of the relevant points, and one that is rarely taken into account, when deciding to purchase a 0 km vehicle are the patenting costs. If you didn’t plan for it, the surprise can be big.
However, on some occasions, attractive discounts are offered to encourage buyers to make the decision and complete the transaction. Many times these discounts have to do with the expenses in registering the unit, but when the time comes to pick up the unit, the seller informs the buyer that he has to pay “some expenses” or they will not deliver the vehicle. .
To avoid having this type of inconvenience, it is important to keep in mind that everything that is offered and that can be demonstrated is mandatory and may be required from the seller. This means that It is essential to have documentation that expressly states the patent items included in the discount.
For this, it is key to know that the usual expenses for an initial registration could be added to the management fees and the expenses of the pledge in the case of having a loan pending payment.
With this information you can complete a certificate signed by the person who must later deliver the vehicle 0 km. This document must include precisely which concepts or items have discounts, which must be paid at the time of withdrawal and it is important that it has the signature of someone who can be responsible if there is any subsequent question.
Furthermore, it must be taken into account that it is not mandatory to accept that someone else carry out the patenting process when the purchase of the 0 km is made without financing.
In those cases, in which a pledgee does not intervene, The buyer may choose to carry out the registration by his or her own means.. The procedure can be carried out directly at the Automotive Property Registry and it is a relatively simple procedure.
But when the 0 km vehicle is purchased with financing, whether it is a savings plan in which there are outstanding payments or a loan, a pledge contract will be signed.
This pledge must be registered along with the vehicle and that is why the patenting is usually carried out by a manager hired by the dealer and/or the pledgee. In these cases it would be important that The details of the expenses include the costs that the registration of that garment will have.in addition to the rest of the items corresponding to patenting.
To avoid arriving at the time of vehicle pick-up at 0 km with the uncertainty of whether they will make the promised discounts and that there are no demands for “surprise” payments, the suggestion is to ask that the duty of information be complied with prior and clear to the contract. No one can refuse this since it is neither more nor less than what is established by law.
It is made clear that the specific case must always be evaluated and this note does not imply advice on the specific situation but rather general guidelines.
