The T&C's of the auction seem to make the onus on the buyer to check.
I emailed that exact question and they confirmed that it's checked but then mentioned if it was never registered it may not appear:
"To protect he Buyer and the seller Shannons does a PPSR on every vehicle to make sure that it is not encumbered. If the ppsr has a record and shows that there are funds owing this is discussed with the owner and sorted out pre auction. Please keep in mind sometimes for some reason some vehicle do not show up on the ppsr reports ( many reasons - eg never been registered) ."
The km of the car do not reflect its age. I'm wondering if it was ever registered after RHD conversion, and if not why? If it were registered it would have been a selling point??
The person then said if I have more questions to call them. No, they were wishy washy on the phone the last time and talk means nothing after the fact.
