mine was from northumberland , just moved south a bit... doesnt move at all now.

Well mine hasn't exactly done much traveling, registered in Reading. How boring.

It seems my long gone Fiesta came from Kirkwall, which is over 700 miles away.

My Mini 25 is from Brighton, but you'd expect that seeing as I bought it from there

shouldn't this topic be pinned?

[THE ANORAK]

ahhh, its back the topic that is

yeah, its often amazing how these car manage to move around but i guess things like E-bay have something to do with that.

one of my cars has been to jersey and back and the other one only made it from Birmingham to rugby

aha - wondered where this went - good to see it back as I have a question....................

recently applied for replacement owners papers for on of the mins - as you do - and when it cam back it had an interesting engine number - MED 1475 - now is that a typo by the east European data entry clerk - or is it feasible I'M SITTING ON THE HOLY GRAIL - a 1475cc engine ?

mf= north london! bought from grays essex. lives in hornchurch in essex. rmf (last 3 letters of plate) - romford, about 2 minutes driving away! has a reputation of being a dirty little romford bird considering how little i wash her!

[THE ANORAK]

fairly sure that the first of the group of 3 letters has nothing to do with its location, its just part of a sequential listing.
