Yeah neat tool indeed but clearly needs updating my records are wrong and I can't put my postcode in but had to put a 0 in as I don't have a GB postcode wtf! !! It's going to be fun it's like they took all the records and it's going to be passed to us drivers etc to make calls to update the records !!!! Some good work there ? :sob:

According to this it was McRae's rally car at one point, though I'm guessing you already knew that bit. Someone spotted it on Flickr in either 2007 or 2013 (it's a little unclear given the upload information), and one of the more recent videos I can find seems to suggest David Lapworth (the Subaru World Rally Team's former manager) either owns it or has access to it at the very least. Considering N1 WRC's provenance - and the fact it was brought over to a show in Dublin this year - I assume Prodrive own it. There's a reference to Banbury on the Scooby Ireland forum and it appears Prodrive is based there.

All my ones are alive except the old c70 t5. And the astra that the new buyer wrote off.

It up Hannahstown direction, I sold it to a Mechanic who was using it for parts. The car was a dog when I sold it but very quick car.

This is great, combined with Ask MID it's great for checking all those dodgy looking motors! So if anyone can find out I guess I wont need to display my MOT disc when the tax disc goes.

Anyway for a member of the public to check insurance - overheard a conversation earlier of someone who mentioned not being insured...

Would have no problems reporting them if thats the case but Id rather be sure

Remember some cars might have went down south, I sold my gt4 to a man in cork and it hasn't been taxed or motd since we sold it

My first corsa that I bought new September 2000 is officially dead though lol 18th November 2010

I near had a heart attack when the supra said no mot but it's up 730pm on Friday haha

Worst car I ever owned, never really run right. Did it still have the dump valve? Lol, so out of place on that car.

Just realised the site lets you see whos not paying road tax, I presume if the tax is £0.00 and the car is over a year old theyre on the dla?
