I believe you can. There is a new national service Personal Property Securities Register (http://www.ppsr.gov.au/AbouttheRegister/BeforethePPSRegister/Pages/Registers_migrated_to_the_PPS_Register.aspx)

Just asked Vic (in the auto business) and he seems to think you can do a check. It's not called REVS now though it was disbanded in NSW (not sure about other states) it's called Personal Properties Securities Registar.  Give them a ring/email and see how you go
Cheers

That may show if there is finance owning, not if it is stolen etc.

It most certainly does.

We just purchased a 2nd hand Jayco a month ago and did a PPSR check prior to purchase.
For the peace of mind I do it on everything I buy.  cars, Boats, caravans, bikes, trailers.
They all can be stolen, written off and financed.

The Vicroads full VSR is no longer, although you can still do a quick free check for current rego, VIN no. and theft.

The PPSR does a full check for $3.50.
