Tracking a ZT in Europe
Does anyone know if there are similar websites in mainland European countries to the British DVLA one which allows you to check the road tax status of a car?
I am trying to track down a LHD MG ZT which was a development car for the V8 production model. She was #13 made, and spent some time in Australia being tested. I assume she came back to MGR in the UK afterwards, but as a LHD vehicle may have been sold into Europe. I have her VIN number and her UK registration plate. Can anyone help? Cheers Andrew

Not in NL. The information is there, but it is considered private and not accessible by non-government persons.
I tried to ask how many Rover 75 where left in NL, and I couldn't even get an answer on that.

Thanks Supervinnie
Sounds like the authorities are a little paranoid over there Andrew

Maybe. It is considered private information, and thus it is hidden away. I think your best bet would be to contact MG/Rover clubs to see if they know of any.
p.s. I don't know how it works in Germany, maybe its easier there?

Not in Italy. You can query cars in Italy by Registration Marks (italian) I'm afraid

VIN logs are public in my country but I can bet you the car is not here. We have here the most common Rover's . I have not seen a Monogram car around here and there are only a couple of LHD ZT's.

Number of cars is easy too from the RDW. For example 13 R75 V8's now known to RDW, including 1 Tourer (#850), of which 1 is probably recently exported or 'died', and 2 are parallel imports (probably 'MGR Death-Auction' cars). Originally 11 were destined for NL. I have all 13 registrations if anyone is interested! See you at the "Best of British" Classic Park in Boxtel on the 24th Sept. (?) and I'll point you in the right direction ! Tracing #000013 ZT V8 from its 6-digit partial VIN may be trickier, but I believe even that is possible at a price if you can extrapolate or know the full VIN.

The only way to see was to try every numberplate combination between 2000 and 2005, and then see what comes up.

Sorry, Andrew, this is not going to help you at all and so is a bit off topic, but ...
