someone on ebay is selling a p38 dse saying its a 1999my, but the reg on the pictures say its a p-plate, i emailed him asking if it was a 1999my or a 1996. he replied the log book says 1999 but the reg is on a p-plate thats a 3 yr difference (give or take) any ideas

you can put an older number plate on a newer car but you cant put a newer number on an older car

hi nickpen, i just checked back on ebay and he sold it for £1800 it was a really good looking motor, but he said he thinks it was sent abroad from new and then came back ? i know strange thing happen but at the price of a new p38 wouldnt you order a left hooker to go abroad?,anyway its gone now, so am i.

hi p38penguin, you must be right because this was a proper DVLA reg, i was looking at it to buy it as it was a very clean motor i wonder why he let it go for £1800? it looked more than that to me.
