The enquiry is complete
The vehicle details for USA 78S are:
Date of Liability 31 07 1986
Date of First Registration 01 09 1977
Year of Manufacture 1977
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 1998CC
CO2 Emissions Not Available Fuel Type Petrol Export Marker Not Applicable

The information contained on this page is correct at the time of enquiry.

I think she is off the road and been so since 1986

I remember seeing that car, I was big into TR's

I have just written an article on a TR8 for the December issue of the TR mag;)

I navigated in this TR8 for a few seasons:)

There was another TR7 with the exact colour scheme around Aberdeen at the time, if my memory is correct the number plate is something like TRS 144T.

Once, I was under inquisition by the wife of only two years at the time about an unknown female passenger in the car and it turns out to be that the sister-in-laws has mistake for other car!!! :mad: In-Laws :mad::mad::mad:

One of my colleague is a life long TR owner and currently owns a TR5 and a TR6. He is making enquiry with the TR Register to find out whether the colour scheme is from the factory or just the local garage. (Aberdeen Motors)!!!

Thanks for the info MM. So she is no longer in service! That's a shame :( Love that car.
