Shite Trip Out

Just been having a walk round my manor on flickr. Not much to find using suburban "town" names so will have to widen the search some other time....

Its been a while since the North Circular looked like this at that point but it is within my own driving memory.

The Jag in the first pic is dead;The enquiry is complete The vehicle details for A215 XGN are: Date of Liability 01 07 1997 Date of First Registration 01 10 1983 Year of Manufacture 1983 Cylinder Capacity (cc) 4235CC CO2 Emissions Not Available Fuel Type Petrol Export Marker Not Applicable Vehicle Status Unlicensed Vehicle Colour GREY Vehicle Type Approval null The information contained on this page is correct at the time of enquiry. Vehicle Excise Duty Rate for vehicle 6 Months Rate £101.75 12 Months Rate £185.00

Not necessarily, we have a Mk1 transit that's not been on the road since 1973. If you can find it on the DVLA computer it could be in somebody's lock up somewhere. Slim chance I know, but it's not truly dead and gone till you can't find it on the DVLA computer or by putting it through a basic HPI check, to see if the number has been re used as a private plate.
I always wondered what happened to my old Escort, sold it early 2006 with tax due end May I think, but it stopped coming up on DVLA online check after that. I guess if someone had transferred a registration mark onto it, the original number would no longer bring up the details?

Early 80s Leeds - notice how everybody looks quite grim and unfashionable, this is how I remember it as a kid.

This is more my style - I'm going to have the Meat and "Potatoe" takeaway dinner for 85p. Yeah, chips please. And a can of Top Deck from the fridge please. Have you got any sauce? 5p, nah I'm alright then. Nah I've saved the fork from last time, not paying tuppence for another.

Try the reg in another checker that doesn't require the make (RAC for example).
