Hey all,
A new owner from Brighton here.
I've just driven my 1974 3.0CSI back from Hamburg. It's in excellent condition, what a machine. Chassis 4340613.
I drove it back on export plates, because it was de-registered in Germany, and I'm now going through the import process for a UK reg.
The Odo. reads 11532. I'm 90% sure it must be 99,999 + 11532 = 111531km but I'm not sure.
I have 2 questions here:
1. What mileage to state on the first reg doc? Would you state the est. total or what it reads now?
2. Can someone point me to where I can find good history of German TüV records etc? I have history back to 2014 where the Odo was 324km, so assuming a year before that it was around 99,999.
There's no rust on the vehicle at all, the gearbox is a bit whiny, but otherwise I could believe it was 11532km. I just don't think that's likely!
Any help would be great. Just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing with what mileage to state for first reg.
Once this is sorted I'll get a project thread started.
Thanks,
Cal
