John (Male)

Okay, Michael, the car looks good. Can we talk about the paperwork now? What all do you have for it?

好的，Michael，车看起来不错。我们现在能谈谈文件手续吗？你都有哪些文件？

Michael (Male)

Certainly, John. I have the clean title in hand, along with the current registration. I've also kept all the service records from when I've owned it, so you can see its maintenance history.

当然，John。我有车辆的干净所有权证明，还有目前的注册文件。我还保留了在我这里时所有的维修记录，你可以看到它的保养历史。

John (Male)

That's great to hear about the service records. It's always good to see that. What about the process for transferring ownership? How do you usually handle that?

维修记录齐全真是太好了。能看到这些总是好的。那所有权转让的流程呢？你通常怎么处理？

Michael (Male)

For the transfer, we'll need to fill out the back of the title. I'll sign it over to you. We can go to the DMV together, or I can provide you with the properly signed title and a bill of sale, and you can handle the transfer yourself. Most buyers prefer the latter for convenience.

关于转让，我们需要填写所有权证明的背面。我会签字将所有权转给你。我们可以一起去车管所，或者我可以把签好字的所有权证明和一份销售单给你，然后你自己去办理转让。大多数买家为了方便更喜欢后者。

John (Male)

I think I'd be more comfortable if we went to the DMV together, or at least if you could provide a temporary permit or something to drive it legally until I get the new title. I just want to ensure everything is above board.

我想我们一起去车管所我会更放心，或者至少你能提供一个临时许可，让我在拿到新所有权证明之前能合法驾驶。我只是想确保一切都在正规程序下进行。

Michael (Male)

Understood. Unfortunately, I can't provide a temporary permit myself, as that's handled by the state. However, I'm happy to meet you at the DMV during business hours. That way, we can complete the title transfer on the spot, and you can get everything sorted out immediately.

明白了。很抱歉，我不能自己提供临时许可，那是州政府办理的。不过，我很乐意在工作时间和你一起去车管所。那样我们可以当场完成所有权转让，你也能立即把所有事情都办妥。

John (Male)

That works for me. Meeting at the DMV would be ideal. I'll need to make sure I have all my ID and payment ready for the transfer fees. Are there any other documents I should be aware of, like emissions certificates?

这样对我来说可以。在车管所见面是最好的。我需要确保我准备好我的证件和支付转让费。还有其他我应该知道的文件吗，比如排放合格证？

Michael (Male)

Good question. This state doesn't require separate emissions certificates for sale; it's usually part of the annual inspection. Since the registration is current, it means it passed its last inspection. I'll give you all the past inspection reports too, just for your records.

问得好。我们州出售车辆不需要单独的排放合格证；它通常是年度检测的一部分。既然注册文件还在有效期内，就说明它通过了上次检测。我也会把所有过去的检测报告给你，只是为了你的记录。

John (Male)

Perfect. So, it'll just be the signed title, bill of sale, and we head to the DMV. Got it. This sounds straightforward.

太好了。所以，就是签好字的所有权证明、销售单，然后我们去车管所。明白了。这听起来很简单。

Michael (Male)

That's right. I aim to make it as smooth as possible for both of us. Let me know what day works best for you to complete the paperwork at the DMV.

是的。我希望能让双方都尽可能顺利。你告诉我哪天去车管所办理文件手续最方便你。
