No online MOT history either, so either abroad or in a barn.

I guess if it now has a private number with DVLA in the UK then its invisible to us?

Hi all

Anyone know where this car is. I had it for a short time in 1976 but had a great offer to sell it so it went, It took me 10yrs to get another but an earlier model which I still have. I was not so into lotus then so did not keep the VIN or any records huge mistake in selling it but that's life.
