Hi all,

I am on the hunt for my old bus - I had a thread on here a while ago and someone actually knew where it was but the thread went dead and I can't find any of my old posts to resurrect it :oops: 

If anyone has an idea of where she is, could you please get in touch - I'd love to know. This is her...

DVLA Vehicle enquiry show that the tax runs out on 31st July. might be worth a letter to DVLA?

They won't reveal anything other than what you can find out on tax checking website.....
 
Data protection and all that,you can request previous owner history if you currently own the vehicle,unless its been involved in some 'incident' they wont reveal anything,and even then only to the police/law i guess.
 
Short of word of mouth or someone spotting it,no way of tracing it i'm afraid.
At least its still taxed so its on the road ,
Somewhere ??

Sold in Grantham to an Aussie guy who worked in Hammersmith. That was years ago though so who knows!

I have an endearing vision of you travelling the country on public transport with a small rucksack and a worn out photograph, showing it to strangers as they get on the bus. They give you a sympathetic gaze, lower their head, and slowly move it left and right. 
If it got into the aussie network, it probably ended up dumped in Biarritz with a blown engine.  It`s now enjoying a life of sunshine and crashing waves on the edge of the beach, and being well utilised by a Portugese prostitute. Big smile It`s very happy, and you can sigh with relief and buy another!

That is sadly quite an accurate description - she's still taxed though, so there's hope. And where there's hope, there's me showing photographs to strangers on busses...    Embarrassed

love it. Smile You`ll have to write a book, and make a movie when you finally track her down.

Just in case it's been found I thought I'd check back!

The MOT hasn't been renewed so maybe someone wants rid of her?

Please?

ok, the MoT expired 4 years ago but you never know....

Anyone seen her?

Still no MOT after 2017 but I'm bumping this in the vain hope that she's not rotting in someone's garden but is actually snuggled safely in a heated barn somewhere Tongue
