Hi guys

 

I know its a long shot but does anyone know of anyway of tracing an old car maybe not the actual owner but just to see if its still on the road and maybe general area?

 

The only reason i want to know is my dad used to have a silver shadow mk2 and sold it when he got ill he spent a small fortune keeping it maitained and it was his dream car. It would be good to know someones still enjoying it and also maybe some day i could buy it back, the other problem is that i only know what the registration number was at the time of sale (WOR 22) and ive got no idea what the reg is now???

 

As i say its a long shot but there may be some way of doing it

 

Cheers

Looks like the plate has been sold, doesnt mean the car is gone though.

Ahh ok i rekon the evil mother must have sold the plate,

 

Cheers for looking matey hows the m5 treating you?

 

My last hope is going to the chelsea workshop (were the car was maintained) and seeing if they can give me the vin number or original reg plate but im not gonna be holding my breath

Yeah looks like it sadly! The M5 is a monster totally inlove with it I have to say. After every drive, even to the shops I step out and think what a car! No replacement for displacement! Haha. I love the instant throttle response and torque at any engine speed makes getting past stuff comedy!

LOL I make you right about the displacement my 6 has been in the garage for almost a month and I can't wait to get back behind the wheel nothing quite like a big german v8 lol although a japanese v6 tt gets pretty close lol,

 

A little update on the roller I poped in to see the guys at Chelsea workshop today and he remembers my old man from the reg plate, we had a nice chat about him and the car I'm not afraid to say it got a touch emotional hearing the fella talking about my dad saying how much of a nice guy he was and how much he loved the car. Sadly though he doesn't tend to keep records for more than 7 years but he's gonna get his assistant to have a look through and see if he can find anything relating to the car that would point me in the right direction so fingers crossed.....

Ah some positive news then mate well done. A noble thing finding a car that has meant alot to a family member! Have you tried the different rolls forums? There might be an enthusiast thats got it or some one else who remember the car from its reg plate, its pretty unusual etc.
