saffrontr Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Blame the company that stamped the plates for the factory, lots of DL's in the TR Register records but when I've checked the build records for a few of them at the BMIHT they are just normal commission numbers. cheers Derek Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tr62500 Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 andyp I dont know if this helps, but when I got my 72 6, and subsiquently obtained My V5C document from the DVLA, they did not match. The bottom line is that if you have overdrive where the number ends in 'O'. The V5C number will NOT match the number on the chassis plate. (The DVLA cannot have 'O' es in the chassis number) In conclusion if the numbers do match, you have a vehicle which has had its chassis plate tapered with or there is a small change made on the V5C, maybe a '0' Zero or a 'D' as mine is, replacing the 'O'.
