Wasn't sure where to post this, so I apologise admin if it's In the wrong section or thread.
Anyway, In 1990 my mum bought this Ford Escort 1.3 Popular from the local Ford dealership which I believe to have been Matlock Ford Derbyshire. It served the family here in Nottingham for 10 years until It was traded in at Matlock Ford for the MK6 Escort in 2000. The car is rather special to me as It would have been the 1st car I ever rode in. I've looked up the reg on the D.V.L.A and it says it was last taxed in late 2003. OK so it's most likely been reincarnated into a Perodua Myvi by now but surely there's a chance it's still out there? Long shot, but if anyway recognises the vehicle or has seen an Identical looking Escort laid up in a scrapyard or rotting away somewhere please do let me know. It could be the one!
so here she is.. H335 WRB

Sounds like someone bought it cheap from a auction of p/x's and ran it into the ground over 3 years unfortunately.

Thought it was a rare colour. Apart from this one, I've never seen a 4 door in this colour.

Its been scrapped look at the date of liability its the 12 of the month - the only way that happens is if the DVLA is notified of distruction

So your saying if it doesn't say 12th of the month there is a chance it may still be around? possibly in a garage somewhere waiting to be found ?

A tax disc always ends at the end of a month here the liability is always either the beginning or end of a month, as this one isn't its been notified as scrapped hence the date of liability is not the beginning or end of a month. Sorry hope that reads clearer

Sorry hope that reads clearer So, when a cars date of liability is any day other than the 1st day of the month or last day of the month, It means it's scrapped?
