Frequently asked questions
What should a car sale receipt include?
Both parties’ names, the vehicle details (make, model, year, VIN/plate), the mileage, the price and the date, plus both signatures. It’s the proof of sale needed to transfer ownership.
Should it say “sold as seen”?
For a private sale, yes — noting the condition (e.g. “sold as seen”) clarifies there’s no warranty. Put it in writing to avoid a later dispute.
