In the past I understand anyone could ring up the dvla and for a small fee £5 i believe it was, they would search their database and tell you how many of a certain car there were left on the roads on the UK.I had never done it before,but last year i called them.They said that they had sold all the rights to this service to various private companys,the gave me the contact details for 4 or 5 places which i called.Unbelievably they wanted to charge me £500! per search.****ers
Anyone know of a way of doing this without taking out a mortgage?

Get in touch with an official owners club, they sometimes have the numbers. I just got the recent set for the Datsun Owners Club from SMMT

SMMT should give you a one-off figure without charging.
When I used to run the Datsun Owners Club I sort of had an arrangment with SMMT whereby they gave me the figures free, and I notified them of any errors I found (which was quite a lot!)

surely the owners club can only count the cars they know of though? The DVLA would know about all of them, in a club or not.

Datman, did I ever send you the new figures by the way? If not, do you want them? |
