Definitely a more stylish method of transportation than the tacky Willowbrook imposter. At least DooVLA have had words with the owners about using the old registration and trying to pretend it's a Harrington Legionnaire. sheffcortinacentre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original coach was scrapped in about 1990, and the scrapping may not have been declared to DVLA. I once tried to apply for a plate that my oul man had on a pre-1963 Beetle (long scrapped). DVLA told me that because the scrapping hadn't been reported to them, the plate was treated as still out there and couldn't be reissued. Effectively the plate was therefore lost.

The Willowbrook Val had the ALR Harrington Legionnaire identity transferred onto it whilst the then owners pretended it was the real deal. DVLA have since cottoned onto it and voided the original ALR registration. It was on the system as 'untaxed' for years after the coach was broken up, but now no longer shows on the DVLA system.

No. The Beetle was sold on in the 1960s and after that it never resurfaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeeExEll Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Like the way the chrome-side-trim blends in with the bubble arches. Groovy custom pinstriping with carefully-masked spraying done there. Must have taken some time to arrange.
