    I was talking with my Dad and uncle last night and we came to the topic of their old family cars. These cars are mostly likely gone by now but its worth a shot to see if they're still knocking around or even if they're lying to rust somewhere just if anyone knows they're where abouts. Unfortunately i don't have Pics but i do have reg numbers:
    1) ZL 20- this was a Black Ford Anglia, we think it was a E494A but not too sure.
    2) MZD 460- Austin A40, described as being a "bluey green" colour :D
    3)9007 ZI_ Hillman Avenger- We think its a 1973 reg and it was blue
    Finally there is a car without a reg, we think it might be UZL *** it was a Brown Opel(i know, its a very vague description)

    If anyone knows of their whereabouts it would be fantastic but as i said they may well be corroded into the ground by now

    Thanks :D Ian

    And a few I/my family owned:

    5557 ZH (white VW Beetle)
    1797 ZU (white Rover 3500 P6)
    524 BZJ (blue Mini City)
    KZC 210 (grey two tone Wolseley 15/60)
    8640 ZU (purple Austin 1100 2 door)
    946 DZD (brown Rover SD1, last owned by someone on Gaynor McVeigh, meant to call in to them but they closed down)

    Only the SD1 & Beetle show up on MyWheels so I guess the others are long dead.

    Funny, I can remember the reg of every car my Dad had from the 60's up to mid 80's but can only remember my first car reg no. Not a clue what my current road car reg no. is off the top of me head.
