hi guys been working away all week so sorry for not responding to this but yes I was initially thinking the same but the police guy said that yes it did look like the bike was still around but the one that rang back completely contradicted the first one so I will be looking at other ways of tracking it down, if at all it does still exist but as above it could just be a record on a database but worth perusing none the less as like Lambretta's there worth a few quid now.EddieStone wrote:I'm a bit puzzled by this - you typed in the registration and the bike is still on the road?
I had a Vespa stolen years ago, it was worth less than the hassle of claiming insurance, so I didn't do anything about it. Since I still have the V5, I still technically own the bike. When I type the registration in on the DVLA site, it still registered as a black Vespa. I doubt it exists though - it's just a record on a database.
If you didn't surrender the V5, it will still be on the database, but whether the actual bike still exists is another matter. Stolen bikes don't tend to last long.
I don't have any documentation, that got lost through three house moves over the years, but I do still have the ignition key! Haha but that's all.
