Hi guys,

I sold my little clubman a few years back because I didn't have the funds to take it any further, BUT now I want to find it again! :)

So if anyone knows where it's wound up or seen it around let me know! :wink:

It was registered under 414 HSR in Queensland and looked like this before I sold it ---

Few more details ---

- It had the stereo moulded into where the switch panel normal is ( no crash pads either )
- It had a center speedo
- It had big electric leather seats

..and that's about all I can think of, HELP ME FIND IT PLEASE!!! How many of you wish you could find your old car! :wink: :D

Cheers,
Sam

I think my first S ended up as beer cans, after my missus wrapped it around a light pole..... :cry:

Cheers Matt!

Are there any government services to find a car? I know about REVS checks, but something funky's going on with that... I went in to QLD Transport and tried to find some info but all they could say was that the rego had been transferred from my name to there's. Damn privacy laws! :?
