Nuns on the Run (1990)
ingo DEWhen the road tax expired, it doesn't necessarily mean, that the vehicle is scrapped. Sure, quite likely, but not compulsory. In the more than 20 years, I'm active as an old car maniac, I've noticed uncountable thousands of cars, which had no valid registration any more, but were still existing. And that not only in Germany.
It's so incredible, what stuff is still hidden in barns, garages and cellars -even in your direct neighbourhood ;) - which noone knows. Sometimes not even the owners or their heirs.

rtsbusman1997 wrote ... 3 conclusions: either fake, too old to show up, or scrapped.

Generally correct, but a couple of other possibilities as well - vehicle sometimes re-registered with new number (usually a cherished plate), or exported, or occasionally just lost or mis-entered on the database. Vast majority of registrations are correct and reliable, and some of these scenarios can be calculated or proved by other means. The only point I'm really making is that sometimes we can be too quick to assume fake. As for ^^^ date of liability, that only states when the last period of road tax expired so was not legally useable on UK road after that date. This usually indicates when the vehicle died, but there are many other scenarios (as above) which sometimes apply.

rtsbusman1997 USGerman plates are different. With british plates, you can check and get make and model. If they don't come up, there are 3 conclusions: either fake, too old to show up, or scrapped.

ingo wrote Annother question: isn't the Transit too old for this date of first registration? It has the old plastic-less front


To be fair, they prolly cobbled a front together for the van. It had been off the road since 1986.

ingo DEOr the plate is a fake :p
Due the experiences with German plates in movies -the very most are always film-fakes- I'm still wondering, why you all trust other plates here so much.

Weasel1984 PLYou are right - 1500. Although Bertone lettering had also Fiats in this place. The mirror is from ca 1981. So the 1981 Fiat (1500) would be the oldest possiibility, if color or some other detail doesn't say more. 2010-07-27 19:45
