WINGNUT Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 The main reason im a member today is because of my beloved dad! From being a young whipper snapper ive grown up round Westies being built and building his mate one! Hence a boy hood dream was born, and god am i sorry i didnt do it sooner! However to get back to point i was curious if there is anyway of telling if his two westies he built are still alive and well? maybe they are owned by someone on here? Is there a way to check will the higher ranks know if i asked politely? Its just curiosity really would be nice to know there still out there being enjoyed! Quote
FILFAN Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 If you know the reg's you can search the dvla site and find out if there taxed Quote
martyblues Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 Pictures, reg no's, dates etc might help, they probably are still around, surely not too many end up in the recycle bin. Quote
WINGNUT Posted April 23, 2013 Author Posted April 23, 2013 Just checked DVLA His first build a yellow 1700 xflow SE is coming back with nothing sadly His second a red 2.0 vauxhall SEiW is saying SORN if im reading it right Quote
Mid life crisis Posted April 23, 2013 Posted April 23, 2013 His first build a yellow 1700 xflow SE is coming back with nothing sadly It may of been converted to a track car though, if you can get the reg no, I am sure you will be able to get more info through HPI Quote
WINGNUT Posted May 1, 2013 Author Posted May 1, 2013 Recentl through help with investigation found out both cars are currently registered but SORN! Still no idea on location or if owners are members of the club! I have emailed all AO's to see if they know of the vehicles or if they are in there area meets! If anyone has any info would be great Cheers Scott Quote
peterg Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Post up the reg numbers on here (despite some people thinking it's risky there is not much chance of someone cloning a car from a reg number on the internet as they can be seen driving around every day anyway...), the AOs won't necessarily be able to help if the cars are stuck in a barn or garage somewhere but some members might know of them Quote
WINGNUT Posted May 1, 2013 Author Posted May 1, 2013 Ok will do here goes! Hopefully I won't get a chewing Q655GRJ Yellow 1700xflow SE Q369GVR Red 2.0 red top (C20XE) SEiW Quote
User0083 Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 I found a picture, it wqas taken 24 april 2011... http://www.flickr.com/photos/lnogworth/5659041755/ Quote
peterg Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Looks in very nice condition too could be lined up for a trackday with a 911GT3RS behind it... You could try contacting the guy whose photo that is through Flickr Quote
User0083 Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 I'm sure i'm about to be corrected here, but i think it may have a bike engine in it, filter position. not sure if the guy owns the car, it's the only picture of it he has on there. Quote

I thought about it being bike engined but it's not clear enough to see and the exhaust doesn't show the headers which would help too Oh, and he might not own it but may well know who does... Quote
