Build date and registration date question

[Muckafutha]

Is it possible for a jazz with july 03 build date to be registered only in Feb 04.
In this case would the car be a 03 model or 04 model?
In my opinion the car is a 04 model but on the rego sticker it states 03 jazz.
Can anyone tell me?

[TypeG]

it is possible like my old typeR
it will be a 04 i believe according to my dc2r

[Catcha]

It should be 03


did you buy your car brand new ??? is so check the warranty booklet and it will tell you exactly what your after

[jefflei]

it should be considered as 03 model.
The year of model is nothing deal with the REGO date. It's all about the date of build of the vechiel.
your car is still called 03 model if it's built in 03 and u buy it no matter 05' or 06' and register it in 05' 06 it's still a 03 model.

I think the method to defind which year model is looking at the design of the Jazz. Coz' u still can buy a 04 model Jazz in the end of 2003.

Just like the 05 model Jazz, u can buy it now in 2004, and the build date is in 2004.
U won't say a 05 model Jazz is a 04 model because of the build date is in 2004.

[TypeG]

but my type R build day is 99 but my rego name it 00
no idea but DavidLing concept is right as new jazz call them 05 MODEL

hey Francis.... u sold ur civic VTiR yet? have u found ur jazz to buy??Joey, the civic is sold. handling over on saturday...and im collecting my jazz on friday hehe second hand of course

the confusion is cos my civic build in 99 but on rego its 2000 honda sedan or sumting. the jazz i just got is build july 03 but first registered in feb 04. so dunno why its different way of showing on the label?

[MRFIT]

don't worry mate..... does it really matter?

what model jazz did u get? what colour? did u get a good price?

[Muckafutha]

So guys when i sell my car first registered in feb 04 in feb 05 is it considered a one year old car or a two year old car

[MRFIT]

depends on the buyer...... u can argue either way...

actually I dun really care...i just dont like it that it was advertised as a 04 if it is clearly a 03.

i got a vivid blue manual vtis for 19k. dunno if thats good or not. comes with tints and alarm and 15000k on the meter and two small dins from shopping centre trolley

[TypeG]

y dun you consider to add 2-3k for a brand new vti?

[Muckafutha]

y dun you consider to add 2-3k for a brand new vti?
unfortunately i dun have another 2-3k to spare...i did think of that but cant afford the extra cash. plus i didnt think that i could get a brand new vtis for 22k

[TypeG]

yes but a vti
but if u cant afford, just buy a seocnd hand in good condition will do

Rather save my self a few ks as 2nd hand market providing good saving at the moment. Vti-s 2nd hand are $20,000 on 2nd hand market for a 1 or 2yr old manual model.

Go to your warranty booklet and it will tell you on the first page

but my type R build day is 99 but my rego name it 00I guess the reason is because your car actually build in 1999, but stored it in the dealer's place for few months (Of coure, the time period of storing can't be too long.). And then the first owner of your car (may be u) bought it in 2000, so the dealer will tell the transport department of your state that it build in 2000, that's why the rego showes it is 2000. I know some dealer do that, and i guess it is a common way.
