welcome back buddy, I have also returned to the 5 scene after a 8 year break, after owning evos, imprezas etc, The 5 is still the most fun to drive

Your old car is not on the dvla database anymore so it could possibly have been scrapped, who knows??

Gary go to www.mycarcheck.com

Its free to type in any registration to find out if its on the dvla database, if its not its not on the road anymore

My old Raider must be dead and buried too!!!

its heart breaking, but what if they changed plates to private plate??? would it show up under original?

[HULK]

Good point if its been put on another plate it wont show up, unlikely but still possible.

There has been a few known famous fives from the late 90s that were magazine cover cars etc that have been scrapped as the shells were rotten

There arent many good shelled 5s out there anymore and finding a mint one is about as easy as getting Cheryl Coles phone number
