Whatever happened to?? (1 Viewer)

[Jeff and terri]

Hi all just wondering do you ever wonder what happened to your old van?
Where is it now. Still going strong perhaps .. As I have a old van , and the guy I bought it of ,I could tell was going to miss it .As his wife wanted a newer more expensive one .. When I recently toured around France and Spain in it , I remembered thinking !! if he only knew where it was now and how it was still going strong .. Just a thought??

simple enough use the government website to check if it has a current mot and what was needed each year to keep it passing

Just checked my old one. The new owners have had it a year and only done 2,200 miles in it. They really need to get out more

Not quite the same but our dogs were re-homed by owners who, due to a change in circumstances, had to give them up. As you might imagine both owners were desperately upset and wanted to follow their dogs future progress. We simply added the owners as 'friends' on Facebook and my wife regularly publishes photos of them in various situations. It works really well and the ex-owners comments show they really appreciate it.

I just check one on my old MHs. In twelve months it only did 103 miles

Just checked our old one ( that we sold about 2 years ago) and it says no vehicle that matched the data you entered can be found. Very strange.

Very strange as it was an 06 so not as old as a lot you see on the roads.

@Ralph-n-Bev it could have a private plate on now

Ahh yes I never thought of that that's probably it .

Is there any way to find out the address of an MOT test centre by using it's reference number? That way I'd be able to work out what part of the country my old MH is in.

A true story.

We bought our first Motorhome just under 3 years ago. Buster was a 2008 Bessacar E560 - great van and we had loads of pleasure from him. He was immaculate

We traded him in for a new Kontiki last July and often thought of him and hoped he went to a good home.

Early in September we went for a long weekend to Pembrey CC site. We had packed up on our last day and as the Beauty Terrorist was strapping in the dog, I stood in amazement as Buster reversed onto the pitch next to us!!!

The couple had just bought him and it was there first trip away in him. It was there first Motorhome having been tuggers all their days.

Incredible.... the Beauty Terrorist got all misty eyed seeing him. The driver was looking a little concerned to see us two gaping at him.... we quickly explained why and they were chuffed...

He then asked me to take him through all the Truma controls etc as he had forgotten all the things the salesman had shown him.

Of all the places in all the world.....

J d k that's a good story and amazing really . I guess the guy who sold his to me would be pleasantly surprised to see it and pleased to know just where it has travelled to since parting with her

I discovered our old 1978 VW camper, that we sold 17 years ago has a current mot and is still going strong. The Autosleeper we sold last year is now living on the Isle of Wight, the owner contacted me on another forum a couple of weeks ago for some info.
