Re: Oldest XM in the World - Latest update!!

Just to confirm that I thankfully secured the MOT certificate last Friday and an application has since been sent off to the DVLA!! There are few jobs required while I await a response and hopefully the new registration, that include repairing or replacing the exhaust centre box and possibly fitting a new pair of middle suspension spheres as the ride needs some improvement!!

I had some queries from the DVLA who required a HMRC vehicle notification, plus the original Polish registration document, but I have now received the V5C with the rather memorable number of F272 HAK!! I am quite chuffed that I have secured an 'F' plate as hoped. Oddly the area code of AK (Bradford) is not local as it was for the German car, although I guess it is a matter of what is available for the age of the car. I shall post up some other photos once the new plates are made and fitted. Regards, Matthew T.

Thanks for your kind words chaps and what a coincidence about your reg. Russ!! I made some mock up plates since the car has to be outside our house at present and here is shot! With regards, Matthew T.

Very special hub caps but a nice car, running on LPG I see. I hope it drives as it should.
