HI Alec
Thanks for your reply, the car at present is fitted with springs supplied by Ken Jenkins and there is little compliance with them and the car sits to high. I am planning to replace the current springs with a set of 420 springs.

Hi Eugene
I wrote to the DVLA for the history of my car but the only problem with them they only carry information on the cars since the intrduction of the V5 document. But its worth a try. If you have the Green log book it makes searching the history much easier

hope that helps
