    But people can always contact me via voc or vt, it's coming along nicely though getting there.
    Yep good to know that they're looking out for us, but do think this one is a little over thought on their part, but it's good to now you have plenty of ways for collecting the info for the register, have you got my green one on there?? or do you need some details, as I guess you have all you need on the Gul.

    probably not, but an educated guess would say it was scattered to the four corners of this country.....I have a souvenir or 2 from it .....bless it and may it rest in piece(s).........

    Very funny, but no it's still going strong 250k miles plus.

    Can check the tax status of cars on dvla, and if broken it says we don't have a record of that vehicle.

    It's nearly all sorted again, had a long chat with my case manager at DVLA today, they have admitted it's their ££££-up.

    What I would like is a teal saloon, not second rarest if looking as 850r as a whole, second rarest estate colour.

    Surprisingly not many 855r in green, I would have thought a lot more.

    But all these 850s are rare, when looking at things like cosworth's

    Interestingly there's is only 50 s60 t6s and 40 v60 t6s (approx) that did surprise me.

    More v8s than t6s (s60/v60)

    S60rs are going down as well quite quickly.
