one of these might help

Lol... good luck. There's also no MOT records. It's probably in a few national geographic photos of some african war by now.

I findit odd that it's not been taxed in 17 years. That and that there's absolutely no MOT record on the DVLA website. Since you say it was sold approx 20 years ago, you're looking at a couple of years before it was taken off of the road. Without a SORN either so my guess is it's missing, stolen, scrapped or just sitting in a barn.

Thank you for your time, was worth a ask. Was odd theirs no history on dvla site as always remember my dad crying every year when it went for mot, shame if it has gone as it wasn't seen to be special then but know I believe it is. Also it wasn't a 3.5 its 3.8 was found out when crank broke and was hard to find parts to fit, was belived to be early vougue if not the first 5 door of production line and spent first 2 years being shipped to and back from America

Hi just become owner of series 3 109 found in farm, got no vin plates or reg no paper work any one help?

there’s plenty of extremely knowledgeable people here

as @blue beasty mentions ref the chassis number , drivers side , front leaf spring dumb iron , ie where the front of the leaf spring joins the chassis, if i remember right it’s viewed through the drivers wheel arch on the chassis

looks a great project , do u have a dry place where u can work on it , ie barn, garage etc

Not at the moment got a mate who works at local garage so going to ask them, if not always cub scout puting up tent badge!

Looks a long term project.
Good luck & happy building

Thank you she's here for good

Nope, I could try Google but then so could you

If it's like any of my Series' you'll need a wire wheel on a drill to find it but you've been told where to look.

Be careful. Check carefully that it is not stolen.
