Gag Halfrunt ◊ 2018-10-27 11:42	cl82 wrote First registration in 1993? So no buyer could be found for more than forty years? It was probably off the road for many years and had to be re-registered. If the owner had the original registration papers they would be able to reclaim its original registration number.
