direct this question to your local DMV before you pay. |

The registration was not paid during that time and you are being charged for that. Even if a car is not running you have to pay fees yearly. You can pay less if you register it non-operational. |

Since the previous owner did not pay the fee for NON-OPERATIONAL status before fees came due, DMV collected those two years of registrations fees plus penalties.
06/07 FEES AND PENALTIES, and 07/08 FEES AND PENALTIES. Plus taxes bases on the sale price. You can always ask the clerk for a FEE SCREEN and it will show a break down of exactly where all the money went to. |

In Cal. ask the DMV for a form
for the previous owners which
certifiy that the auto was
non-operational. They have
probably done that already so
THEY would not have to pay
fees. You must get it smogged
but I don't think you will have
to pay anything for the non-
operating years...just for the
coming year. Who is "they"? |

Depends on the state that you live in. Some states pay a sales tax, or a wheel tax or a registration fee or you have to pay taxes if it was a gift or so forth and so on. You get the idea |

Registration and tags run around 90$ depending on what state you live in. You also have to pay sales tax on the purchase price. They dont care if it doesnt run or not. |

This more than likely is the sales tax, and the fee to transfer the vehicle to you. |
