Because ownership is transferred with the car. In the act it is necessary to fix the technical condition in detail. This will avoid disputes over damage identified after the transaction.
Treaty need to make in triplicate: for the seller, the buyer and for the registration of the traffic police.

Be careful with the purchase of a car on the general power of attorney. De jure, in such transactions takes place the purchase of paper, not a machine. You become the owner, but not the car owner. The present owner, by the way, may at any time revoke the power of attorney. Return the money in this case is extremely problematic.
