    It will be the log book, if you have it. But this will have to match the chassis number on the car which they will probably check. In the absence of a log book, there should be a manufacture date stamped somewhere on the car.

    Ahhh, looking for a 25-30 year old gas-guzzling 3+ litre car to try and tax on the cheap?

    (or sniffing after UK tax exemption on an export/re-import to UK basis?:rolleyes:)

    I presume they'd go on the log book as all they car about would be first registration date, not manfactured date. Now to lose a log book and try and start from scratch would be more difficult, besides there are date stamps all over a car and sometimes they don't sit around as long as we'd like to think waiting to get registered.

    What exactly are you trying to achieve? (a day, a month, a year?)
