Which should narrow things down a little.

Thanks very helpful

doh! apologies for getting your hopes up

A bit curious as to why you want this info? I think the warranty is probably well out of date by now.

Why do you need a "French car specialist"?
Most of us could help by visiting a Ford dealer for you.
So you know if the original number plate had a department number on it or with it?

I don’t need a specialist really it just came to mind. Any help would be much appreciated.

The original plate has a 35 department number but it’s a slightly blurry photo so i could be wrong.

I’m trying to replace a lost service book and after the original dealer stamp and any service history on record. Of course I’d be willing to buy a beer or ten if anybody can help

I don’t understand why you’re so keen to get your hands on the service book,nobody else in all of France will care about it’s service history.
