"Q" plate?

sounds like stolen recovered with missing VIN's and Engine Numbeer to me, may have been partly striped prior to recovery, thats my guess

Personally... I think it's good... But that's because I am looking at buying. After I've bought one I whole heartedly agree and the price of these soon to be classics (for "soon" read "the day after I've bought one") SHOULD go up not down.

Oh and please stop advertising them... I was hoping to pick up a sneaky bargain ;o)

shouldnt worry, it's a Q plater - always a bit of an unknown entity.

[Corin Denton]

Has anyone asked why it's on a Q?

...why cant it be good? This price is no reflection on 'normal' plated cars. Its a 'Q' plate - simple as that. Different rules, different prices...

Have you never seen a 'Q' plate car and not wondered why it ended up being reassigned, and not usually for good reason!

As it states in the advert "REBUILT CAR FROM SECOND HAND PARTS", and confirmed on the DVLA website "These are a very useful consumer protection aid. A 'Q' number is a clear indicator to a prospective purchaser that the age or identity of a vehicle is unknown. The vehicle may be rebuilt from parts, some or all of which may not be new. This also applies to vehicles imported without supporting evidence to identify the vehicles age.".
