Hello from Belfast

Nice.  How come its a 2001 Y reg??

I didnt notice that either  :roll:  :dontknow:

When the seller gave me the details following his cherished transfer, so that I could arrange insurance and the ferry booking, I asked him if he'd told me the correct way around - I thought he made a mistake and that it should be MVV 57Y, which would be correct for a car manufactured on 29th September 1982.

However Y57 MVV has been issued to the car - says so on the V5c and the new tax disc. Someone in the cherished transfer section has given the car the wrong "Y" methinks  :dontknow:

Is the car more valuable now??  :mrgreen:

Further to my last - I purposely didn't mention this, to see who would notice first  :wink:

Have to say, I never gave it a second thought (just a little disappointed that it didn't get an "A" registration - so that I could transfer a personal plate of my own). It was a friend of mine who pointed out the mistake when I told him the reg…

Who knows maybe. But you sure have a rare Y reg 2001 Model :mrgreen:

Looking good.     I think I'd have ended up stalking someone to sell me the red one too.  :mrgreen:

Which 1 is that then ? :dontknow:

The red convertible that parked beside me at the hotel - see previous post...

Ah ok :wink:

I have now received the V5c logbook - it matches the plates and the tax disc.
Looks like the "Y" prefix is here to stay, unless they realise the mistake and contact me  :dontknow:

Lucky you  :mrgreen:
