#1 Possible new car

Post by Stevemorris » Wed Apr 22, 2026 3:51 am

Good morning all,

Can anyone tell me how they would go about tracing the history of a car please? I’m looking at a car that the current owner has had for 13 years, it’s had quite a bit of work done including a full restoration in the 1980’s, but I know very little about the car before then.

Who do I ask?

Many thanks,

Very difficult finding history....if its been added to xkedata it may tell you something....and a Heritage certificate will confime details of how it left the factory....you need the chassis number as a starter.....maybee tell us more detail someone here may know it.....Steve
