Hi, I am new to the forum and I have recently bought a TGB 303R which was originally sold by a dealer in the Netherlands, used in the La Mans rally twice back in 2005/6 and then put into storage for a long period of time. Somewhere along the way it was brought into the UK and eventually I purchased it. I have paid a company to help me with the paperwork to get it registered i.e. nova cleared plus a certificate of conformity but after filling in the DVLA application form and sending it off I have received it all back with a cover note explaining that it's been rejected because I need to prove the date the scooter was manufactured. DVLA'S advice was to contact TGB which I have tried with no luck. Failing that get in touch with a TGB owners club but I don't think one exists.
Is there anyone on here who might know the best way to find out and prove when it was manufactured?
I'm sure, going on the VIN/CHASSIS number it was manufactured in 2005 but that doesn't seem to be enough for the DVLA.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Suzy. 😎
