    No offense, but you should never buy a car from someone without title in hand. I hope you get it worked out. Sounds like the seller took your money, defaulted on her loan, and ran. Basically, your VX is probably on some repo list somewhere. Wow, sounds like you're kinda screwed. Not sure what you can do. In the eyes of the DMV, you basically have a stolen car. If I was you, I would contact the police and see what they can tell you. Might not get anywhere, but that's where I would start. Worst case, you might get lucky and be able to do some sort of salvage title, but honestly, this doesn't sound good. Sorry.

    Maybe look into a friend with a tow company or a mechanic's shop and get a lien put on it? Ya I would never buy a vehicle without a title, a buddy of mine bought a Montero for parts without one and we got lucky that we could sell it to someone who was gonna use it for mud bogging only, otherwise we'd be stuck with a vehicle we couldn't do anything with

    And you were able to register a car without a title?

    Do you at least have a bill of sale?

    Bill of sale is pretty much useless. That is really only used to prove the price paid for the vehicle. I mean, sure, anything will help you at this point, but a bill of sale alone will not get a car registered right. Do you have her full name? Drivers License number? You need to report a fraudulent transaction to the police. I don't know what else you could do. The title is the MOST IMPORTANT part of a person to person car sale. No title, no deal.

    I hope you didn't pay a lot for this VX!!! Good luck!

    Just had an idea, post the VIN number on here or look it up yourself at the top and see if the previous owner was a member on here. Maybe someone here knows the person and can help.

    I ran the autocheck, please PM me your e-mail address and I'll forward results to you. The car has been titled 3 times, all times it was a lien title.

    Last title: 05/01/2009 AUSTIN, TX
    Motor Vehicle Dept. REGISTRATION EVENT/RENEWAL

    If you have a notarized note that she has received payment in full and is obligated to send you the title you might be OK. I've also heard that sometimes DMVs can mail the title directly to the out of state buyer.

    I just did an internet search for "Traci Goudie". She is on FACEBOOK. In addition, I queried her name on www.411.com (one of my favorite P.I. sites) and it shows she's from Austin, TX and there is also a "T. Goudie" that resides in Virginia. From the www.411.com website, it appears her original birthname (maiden last name) is "Campbell" with multiple relatives listed. It shouldn't be too hard to track her down via an acqaintance or relative ("Campbell"). Visit your local DMV/DOL, and ask for their advice in how to procede (afterall, they have the Gov't computer for motor vehicles). You might also contact the State of Texas DMV/DOL as well at their website.

    Lastly, the best way to buy a vehicle "long distance" is via www.Escrow.com. The Seller doesn't get any money until everything checks-out (including Title transfer). I bought my VX long distance from eBay and had it shipped to me via transport carrier (Dependable Auto Shippers, aka D.A.S.), and used www.Escrow.com as the monetary conduit. Total peace of mind, no stress, and no way to ever get ripped-off.

    grrr, I hope it works out for you, but with you texting in your posts, its a bit disturbing to read, one, because it sounds like you got ripped off, and two, I CAN'T READ YOUR TEXT SPEAK!

    contact the reporter

    who wrote that story they may still have contact. Also as an artist or what ever she classifys herself as she is bound to show up. Also Austin police may help if you file a report as selling a vehicle and not supplying the paperwork is illegal.

    Also you seem to have left your caplock on. I would turn it off. Leaving it on for every post makes reading it difficult.
