martyn wright Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 i All, I received a letter from former TSSC Member "Dick Plumridge" on 29th Apr 2003 stating that my vehicle YK in KYK711D was originally a London issued Registration. Sadly these were amongst the records destroyed. I am now ready to contact the DVLA to request Individual information about my vehicle. Again the last report (letter 2003) I received was that KYK711D was around the 13th Oldest on the Vitesse Register at TSSC? Does anyone have any further update on this? Many Thanks Martyn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gully Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 Not sure if the Vitesse register secretary, Dave Rumens, participates in this forum. Probably best to drop him an email on vitesse@tssc.org.uk Gully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave.vitesse Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 Sorry we don't keep the info on history of the cars any more. There was some concern raised in the past by HQ re data protection. Plus other problems keeping it up to date which meant it stopped. Dave Vitesse Reg Sec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve P Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Have a look here: http://www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/registrations/yk.htm This indicates June 66 in the London area for that reg. My Vitesse (PHT) is June 68 in Bristol.That makes sense to me as i managed to find the first owner and talk to him. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martyn wright Posted July 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 i All! I actually sent off £5.00 to DVLA (Central Casework Group) for the History of KYK711D and received a nice letter back stating that my request was being processed and should receive a reply shortly!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyn wright Posted July 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 i All! Update: DVLA have now sent me 8 Pages of History Information on 1966 KYK711D Vitesse Mk1 1600. The paperwork takes the Car back to London in 1968. I am the 6th Owner and No 5 Owner only had the vehicle for 4 Months for a fast turn around? (must have realised how much work it needed?). The paperwork consisted of all the V5s from 1978 to Date and "Changeover Slips" etc with Addresses and Dates as far back as 1968. I am aware that there was a Fire in a London Council where the car was registered (1966-1968) and all records where destroyed! KYK lived most of its life in inner London and the Margate area. Not bad for £5.00 Many Thanks Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
