    A wife that doesn't like expensive stuff and likes normal and decent stuff is the best girl for me.

    If you can’t touch the original CR/OR, don’t touch the car “period”. Even if it comes through you may have unpaid penalties and so fourth you’d be responsible for.

    As the saying goes, if it’s too good to be true, it probably is.

    Safety first

    I wouldn't touch a vehicle with an "open" registration like that. So many ways you can get screwed, especially since it is a repo. I would cancel your money transfer asap if possible.

    Get him to transfer into his name first before any purchase.

    My guess is he is going to scam you. The P50,000 you hold will be given up by him and you will be left with a car that will hard to register. Simply agree to purchase when has has the car properly registered to him and you go through the proper transfer process. Until then start looking for a properly registered vehicle.

    And remember what happened after Undoy many years ago. Lots of used cars showed up in the Visayas and Mindanao, looking good and clean. Then the problems began and when the titles were examined it was found out that many came from Marikina and were previously underwater.

    Not saying that is going to happen again, but.

    Agree with everyone else, do not purchase a car or home without a clean title or you will have nothing but regrets.

    If you decide to press ahead and let him arrange the paperwork, you must make sure that there's a document included from the original loan company stating that their interest in the vehicle and financial arrangement is ended.

    Don't buy a problem, let the seller first solve his paper work. Why you should be the one!
