We've arranged to buy a car second hand, but the guy has said we don't have to to the RTA with him to sort out the exchange for the Registration if he has all the correct paperwork, is this right?

Well Secondhand Showrooms (Auto Consultants) are empowered to transfer the vehicles through their PROs. So both buyer and seller need not visit the Traffic Dept. at all with regard to car trasfer. In this case, both buyer and seller must sign on car transfer papers as well as hand over their original IDs in order traffic dept. officers to cross check signatures on the papers.

I just bought a second hand car too. both the parties have to be present for the change of reg. a paper will be made at the police station in the type writer's office duly signed by both the parties and then pay 200 for the ownership change at the cash counter. its 10 mins job if u have your RPs and 200 QR!
