Our first reported success.....
Received following from AVCIS this morning (and cleared to post on the forums)
I've not been told to which actual ID this one related too, as suspect that is too sensitive.
It's a start.... please keep sending them in
The guy is selling a chassis with ID. This is actually legal.
Might just break them on the side for all you know.
tis good,I have to work very hard to keep hold of the landy here...it gets watched alot,im not paranoid just observant.i have noticed the same wagon a couple of times now,each time i have been followed i have gone right round a roundabout and it followed me.Latest couple sent on to AVCIS.
It's great we've had some success and that AVCIS are taking our info seriously. All I'm doing is coordinating what gets posted up on here, LandyWatch and one or two other forums, so its most certainly an all round effort.
oh yeh cause ,he just broke a damaged free puma ,,,,,,it must be me
Thats not a puma. Early 90.
o no ,,i was on about the other items he has for sale
o no ,,i was on about the other items he has for sale
I'd say he was someone who breaks land rovers. The auction for the vin and chassis, the pic of of a complete body + running gear as well, but the description says chassis only, so presumably he's stripping it to sell all the parts
Martin is correct that what he's doing is legal, or at least within the letter of the law, the point is though that whoever buys the chassis isn't going to rebuild it to original spec using new parts, as they'd need to do to stay legal, they're obviously going to swap the id onto another vehicle, either to avoid the LEZ rules, or worse still to clone one they nicked.
Selling ID's a a ****s trick, if he really intended the truck to be re built he'd sell it in as bigger lump as he could with most of the bits still on it, as it is, he's sold all the other parts and now he's being greedy and wants a draw for the V5 as well, even though he knows as well as you ans i do what the buyer is going to do with it.
so i think over all you're right, he does need a visit from the rozzers, if only to give him a change of attitude.
What a load of ****e. only last week some poor fooker joined up ere and posted pics of his 90 that he'd just wrapped round a tree and bent the chassis. this sale would be ideal for him. he also sys that DVLA will be notified of buyers details and that V5 will go to DVLA.
I know ebay is awash with stolen landies and parts., BUT FFS not everyone is selling knock off landies
He wouldn't be needing the V5 though, would he?
the seller isn't selling the chassis, he's selling the ID.
No he is selling a chassis with its legal ID which should stay with it.
So the V5 must go with it. Which part of that dont you get.
If you damaged a Chassis the only way to replace legally would be to fit a brand new one and havr it stamped with the VIN .
You could buy a secondhand one with an ID but you legally should rebuild with the ID of the chassis and register a change of engine number with the DVLA.

the seller isn't selling the chassis, he's selling the ID.
