Hi all I am looking for my first car. Rover Mini 40LE reg: T917 KVF

Thanks

I have your car! looking to sell it at the moment, after almost 5 years of ownership!

MG Midget SBH721J

I have probably asked before on this thread but it seems to still exist but on SORN

My first car was a 2013 Citroen DS3 DSport Red Diesel, black with red roof, reg AY13 HCP. I occasionally check the MOT history, the little thing is doing a lot more miles than it did in my ownership!

Would love to know where it ended up. I traded it in to Vindis VW Huntingdon in 2018. I've seen a glimpse of one nearby my house once, but couldn't get the reg.

Untaxed since 1997 so razor blades for sure … sadly.

[the-norseman]

Anyway to find out where a car has been exported to? my old MK2 Leon Cupra R has been sent abroad apparently

KS10 EFW

[James6112]

Would love to know if my old Triumph Spitfire-still exists
MXE 261K
Was midnight blue when I owned it in the 80s
Shut my current wife’s leg in the door on our first date. Happy memories!

[uk66fastback]

That Spitfire is now green but not taxed since 2014 … may have been broken for parts or under a cover somewhere …

I wish I could track down a particular car so I can look to buy it! It’s a 2011 Citroen C1 knocking on 100k miles but I really want the plate for my son.

It’s not a vanity plate but would effectively spell his first name and initials.

I’ve no chance finding the owner have I really?

Not legally, no.

It is possible to enquire owner details at the DVLA over things like parking disputes, but doing so just to get a name and address in order to enquire about buying a number plate would not be.

That reg isn't registered any more, so unless it's abroad, you're right.

Likely hasn't been on the road in at least 20 years.

It’s currently advertised on Car and Classic. It looks really nice.

Had a look, it’s been really well maintained and improved.

I owned that car for 18 years, it’s really cool to see it go from strength to strength
