    got told the bay had 2 owners in america, last owner 21 years but got too old to use it in the end, no idea if true, but his son sold it too the dealer i got it off and that's what he said.
     
  8. 13 and i have names and address for most of them , one of the owners lived two streets away from kate , when she was a bit younger so there is a good chance she had seen it before

    bet zedd knows who that is :)
     
  12. We are the second owner of our van - best bit about it- the rest has fallen apart.
     
  13. Np idea.

    I would actually liek to know how many engines mine has had. I think its at least three. It cam out of the factory as a 2 litre according to the M plate. Its had a type one in at some point as it has that funny air filter bracket welded on and was sold to me as a 2 litre but is actually an 1800.

    19 previous owners and 48148 miles by 2010, and the engine code doesnt match the V5.

    Now at 67000 miles.

    According to the MOT site- between 2005 to 2010 about one owner a year, each using about 2 tanks of fuel according to the mileage figures.
     
  15. I am about to send off a V888 request for names/addresses of former keepers. The DVLA are going to need a big envelope.

    That's 22 previous owners (the previous owner acquired the van in May 2007 - he owned it 10 months before selling it to me in March 2008).
     
  16. 9 mine , one owner bowt it again 4 years later . so eight really :)
     
  17. 11 and im the 12th. Only have details of last 2. The guy before the po I bought from got the van from a car sales place and it appears from receipts for work it was abit of a wreck when he got it and done it up. No info from before 2006. I have thought about putting in a request to DVLA and writing to previous owners.
