An owner is only an owner if he or she registers the vehicle. Technically he is in possession of it.
And buying from the possessor instead of the owner is called buying stolen property
I've run across several people selling vehicles that the title is not in their name
I always ask
"Do you have a clear title, in YOUR name?"
Don't touch it if the seller didn't bother putting the title in their name , otherwise how do you know they are the owner ?
