Rev1 on a 1999 T plate?

Post by saj8162 »

My mate phoned to me today to come and look at this MR2 he took in p/x, said it was a T plate, G-LIMITED, auto,

When i saw the car, it looked like a REV 1 Was no way a T plate, old lights etc, same bumpers as the rev 1 etc, number plate show's T plate, and even states it on the log book,

I said i would post it on the forrum and see what you lot make of it? only thing i can think of is, it was imported in 1999 and some how ended up on a T plate when they registered it?

That's exactly what happened, whoever issued the plate presumed it was built in 1999 so gave it a "T" plate, there are a few about :eye:
