Hi all ive got my bus of 6 months its a 1972 crossover moonraker currently in for a light restoe, reg HYW 677K I have old mot's but nothing other than that anyone come across or know any history cheers matt :D
 
You can write to the dvla and for about a fiver they send you details if the previous owners etc, all very interesting stuff :D
 
I did this but as my bus was a California import I only got the uk owners ( so 3 owners n 3 years for my bus )
I contacted the previous owners and had some good results.
Photos n info
Karmon connection imported my bus. They were disappointing not much info as they couldn't b bothered.
Shame as they have a good reputation normally
They seem to import only the best cars and campers but after sales not so good
 
If u write to dvla mention your building a history on your bus
Bit of advice from rickyroo as far as I remember
It worked
 
V888 form and £5 gets you a list of all previous owners - good if your bus has always been uk registerd - nt much point if it came from the u.s.
 
But still worth doing as u never know who imported it n owned it in uk before u purchased it !

Thanks rickyroo ;)

Mines a UK panel van I sent off the v888 and it turns out it was Manfields main VW dealers own van for the first 5 years.
