Very early import registrations

carchaeologist

Hello lads, bit of an odd question here but im doing a bit of a study with a fellow boardsie of this parish and we would appriciate a bit of help.:)

Whats the earliest non ZV import registration you have seen, such as say, 13 D 1 or 15 LK 21. Im talking pre 1925 here. Do all the really early import issues start at #20 like the later 1930s and '40s issues do? Or is there any lower than #20 issues about pre 1925?

Is there any photos of said registratons/vehicles?

Does any one have a shot or evidence of an imported car made between 1955 to 1965 with a reg in the approx 300-400 range? As in 63 C 300 or 59 LH 383.

Did you try typing early regs into Cartell or Donedeal?

Seen at Durrow in 2009, a Henderson, I think its the DeLuxe but I can't remember.




I've pics of 69 MH 511 and 66 WW 507 if they are any use.

've seen either 18 D 1 or 13 D 1 at Terenure a couple of years ago, but the pics were on a laptop that got damaged.

Done deal is easier to use ,also gives you the year:)

Among others, I own 54KE**...try the IVVCC website, it should have listings of original Irish registered cars, as well as imported ones.

The Aussie

There is a bloke trying to sell a 1931 Daimler Limo for 15,000 Euro that has the Reg of 31-D-1 up the Country, beautiful car but damaged and needs (judging by photos ive seen and enlarged) a handy amount of work done, first i saw of it was on Flea bay about 15 months ago but the add was pull just before the end of the auction ended at about the £5,400 mark i think, still for sale now, pity as i would love it as my next project but in all realism its not worth half of the asking price

Not quite the range you were looking for, but might be of some assistance. Photo of 56 LM 20 taken at the Ordnance Survey open day a few years ago.

You couldn't under the last scheme, 20 was the start point.
