June 4th, 2009 11:42 PM #1I have been browsing thru the classified section of Tsikot.com and I always encounter imported cars for sale. The ads will usually have "TAX PAID, DILIMAN PAPERS". Is it really safe to buy an imported car that have been registered in LTO Diliman? Does having Diliman papers mean taxes had really been paid and therefore you will not have any problem transferring and registering the imported unit? I hope fellow Tsikoteers have the answers. Thanks in advance.

Not really sir. Lahat naman ng imported vehicles na register sa LTO eh. Supposedly, pag na register sa LTO yan ( kahit Cebu, Zamboanga etc) ay "tax paid" kuno, kasi isa ito ( certificate of customs payment) sa prereq bago mairehistro ang isang sasakyan. pero ang nangyayari minsan "doctored" pala ung papers re: tax payment kaya pag nabusisi ng maigi, dun lumalabas ang problema ng mga papeles.
less likely lang ang hokus pokus pag LTO Diliman kasi di hamak na mas mahigpit sila at mas strikto sila sa pagverify ng pertinent reqts for registration. pero kung talagang palusot ang papeles, at nasilip yan, problema mo pa din.
so best course mo pa rin is to double check all papers and if possible have written documentation. Para in the near future ay wala kang maging sakit ng ulo.

Actually, I think, kaya lang naman sa Diliman yan niregister is simply because to avoid the surplus stigma.
since these are surplus cars, pag cebu ang pasok, Y ang start ng plate, sa Subic, R, sa Cagayan Valley, B.
So, to sort of remove that association, sa Diliman ang rehistro para isipin ng nakakakita second hand local model lang.
