Josh Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I know it's been asked, but would you consider buying a UK spec in another colour and having it resprayed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARPUS Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 Hello Josh, The car has to be in the original colour RED, as I'm really interested in the classic car status of the UK spec Supras and the car needs to be as original as possible, in the major areas. How's your respray and engine ''tweak'' going? ... lol Regards, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could try contacting them and see if they would sell. Its a long shot but you will be a long time waiting for one to turn up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARPUS Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 Hello np89, I contacted the DVLA and asked them to give me the details of the current owner of my old Supra ( N968 PUL ) and they refused, saying it was against the privacy regulations.

np89 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 You have to request it in writing I think and there is a fee as far as i know, thats how all the parking companys get your address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARPUS Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 The DVLA will only give out personal information, if there is an official reason. ( i.e. The car was given a parking ticket and they need the owner's details, to send the fine to. ) I quote from the letter the DVLA sent me--- Regulation 27 of the Road Vehicles ( Registration and Licensing ) Regulations 2002 permits the release of certain information under the Data Protection Act 1998 and has a duty to protect the privacy of individuals, when releasing information held on its computer record.
