I have a Copart account, but they are robbing bastards on fees and a £300 car effectively becomes a £550 one. My membership may well have expired - I'm not renewing after 10 years.  I usually buy stuff from Westbury but everything is fortunes.

Confirms my suspicions.

I think this will sadly end up as scrap. :(

so hopefully he falls flat on his face when he tries to steal its number plate! 

(can you tell I dont like it when a historic vehicle gets robbed of its number plate? LOL especially when it happens to a fleet vehicle where the number plate holds a greater amount of significance to the vehicle, then it would on a private car and also because when a vehicle loses its original plate it can mess up someones research into that vehicle, especially since the DVLA don't make it easy to find out if a vehicle has had a plate change or not, case in point a lot of people thought VES108S was a private car until I found out it was actually robbed of its original plate XEV88S and turned out to be a ministry car)

and as an edit side note heres a picture of VOX510 from back in the day :)

Well, seeing as that is a completely different vehicle from the one in the listing I'd say it's already been plate-raped at least once so I wouldn't feel too bad about it losing its 'identity' for a second time...

I wouldn't be so quick to say that

although much like Invacars and Routemasters (and I guess fleet vehicles in general!), milk floats sometimes had their registration number plates swapped around etc

a lot of milk floats where genuinely rebodied (or well recabbed I guess?) during their lifetime :) 

so could well still be the same vehicle!
