Is there a way to find out (from DVLA?) how many '53 coupes there are registered in the UK ?

I'm trying to show how 'rare' they are to try to save some vat ...... HMRC are tightening up and are now less inclined to let imports in at 5%vat

Thanks,
Steve
 
Funny you should ask that - have you seen the December edition of Porsche Post? I think this article by Peter Cook attached to you 'Fixed Binding Tariff' application will give you good support[:)]

PM also sent.
 
Thanks John !
I need to get hold of another copy of PP as my wife seems to have err....... "recycled" mine ! I can't find it anywhere !
Could you give me the gist in the meantime? ..... maybe I can get hold of a copy from HQ

Cheers !

You really must get hold of a copy - its as if its bit written in response to your question. To much info to put into summary but in 1953 only six 356's came to the UK 3 of which were Coupes and 3 Cabs. The total WW production for 1953 was 1547. The article also goes on to give mainly data on UK cars (but that should help with you Binding Tariff agreement) of what they think are left etc - Sorry cant get you copy but put in a call to Club office to get another copy of PP - you will be delighted[:D] Perhaps a PM to Peter Cook who wrote the article would be a good idea since he has all the contacts[;)]
Good luck

You could always contact the 356 Register Secretary - Fred Hampton - he should be able to help you. Contact details in Porschefile
