A long shot I know...

My brother and I recently scattered our dad's ashes and began to wonder what had happened to his ultimate motoring pride and joy. I thought this forum might be worth a try…

He bought a brand new, red, Golf GTI in 1983, and it was his favourite car ever! For good reason, obs!! Unfortunately I am cursed with the same ridiculously good memory as he had, so know the number plate was/is GWR 200Y. We would be incredibly grateful to discover any information about it.

Many thanks.

Hi and welcome,

It is not a reg I recognise.

Doing a vehicle check, the road tax was last due in 1998, so not looking good - maybe in some ones garage though!

Good luck with the search.

Really Hope you find your loved one' how special that would be my fingers are well and truly crossed for you

Form V888 from the DVLA May give you the current owners details or be able to pass on a letter to them.
You have to give a reason for wanting the information.
So historical and family research etc may be an in road.
Also adding the memorial to your late Father.
