Hello Guys and Gals,
I used to be a member here a long time ago (5 years i think) back when i used to own a red N/A with the reg number E298 DTT. Unfortunately i sold her as i was low on the old funds and she was just costing me too much to run.
A few weeks ago i was having a conversation with my brother who is a massive rotary nut and is well versed with the engines and we were discussing the old 7\'s we used to own... anyway to cut a long story short i became very sentimental of the old lady and did a DVLA search almost immediately!!
To my surprise she hasn\'t been scrapped but is SORN\'d so i would like to reach out to the community i was once a part of to see if anybody knows where this car is so i can perhaps try and buy her back.
As mentioned the reg is E298 DTT, she had turbo II wheels and front splitter and a duck tale spoiler as well as a white dial kit installed.
Honestly i don\'t know if this will work but i like to give it a try because honestly i think it was probably the best car i\'ve owned.

Best of luck, a noble quest to be sure.

There\'s a section in there about applying to the DVLA for current registered keeper information, you have to be able to demonstrate reasonable cause, might have to tell a little porky on that one.
Thank you Rob192 I have filled it out and will get it off today. Fingers crossed they can help.
Best

Fingers crossed for you bud.
Hi Doug, did you get any info from this?
It\'s the strangest thing, I was the guy who bought her off you all those years ago.
I LOVED that car with all my heart, I owned her for a while and was loving it until my
Girlfriend at the time decided she wanted rid of me, she left me with no house and a mountain
Of debt so unfortunately I had to sell the car.
I regret it every second to this very day. I know that sounds like I\'m exaggerating, but I\'m really not
I\'ve not been on this forum for years about 2009 I think my last post was. I have been missing the car a bit more recently as I only have my diesel land rover for transport and while she\'s fantastic, she\'s anything but fast.
I can\'t believe after all these years, I come on here because I was driving an fc on forza 3 and feeling really nostalgic and your post is right near the top of the list.
Anyway, all I can tell you is I sold it to a bloke from yorkshire direction. He fitted a strut brace and a sleepy eye kit. I asked to keep in touch as if he was selling it when I was in a better financial position I\'d buy it back in a heartbeat and he never did.
If it appears to still be in that same area, I\'ll see if I still have his old email he sent and you could give that a go perhaps?
Either way, I wish you the best of luck with it and if you do find her again, just let me know she\'s ok won\'t you?
All the best
Brad
