Oh look:
"Other conditions precedent


Other common conditions precedent are clauses in the contract stating that the contract is subject to:
  • a satisfactory check by a mechanic of your choice, or a test drive;
  • an RACV or VACC check; or
  • parental or spouse's approval.
If you deposit money or valuables with a trader prior to a test drive or mechanical test and subsequently return the car and do not enter into a contract to buy it, the trader must return the money or valuables immediately (penalty 10 pu: reg.21(1) MCT Regulations).
Regulation 21(2) has identical conditions for a conditional contract to buy a car where you subsequently decide not to continue with the contract."
