Classic cars forum & vehicle restoration.

[p5 swansea]

hello, i'm now driving a 1970 p5b coupe, and living the ongoing nightmare
of restoration with a limited budget and even more limited knowledge. have always been a rover fancier having grown up in a family of p6 drivers, back in the 70's but mostly due to the fact that in 1987-88 i learn't to drive in the families 1961 80.
what i would reaaly like is to know the fate of this vehicle, i've looked for it on the p4 forum and whilst they have been able to tell me that the number is still listed as a an 80, thats as far as i've got. i must stress that i'm not looking to re purchase or anything, i'd just like to know how it is as it was of great sentimental value to me.
so if you know of or own a 1961 80 green in colour ( i wont print the reg as i'm not sure if thats ok though i didon the p4 site) which was in the swansea area in 88, and you feel inclined to reply i would be very happy to hear, incidentally i'm on the p4 forum under ex p4 driver, and the p5 forum as garethl.
thanks.

You could try the DVLA vehicle enquiring site if you put in reg no and car it will give you a small amount of detail, at least to see if it is still "active"
