[postmanpat]

Hi everybody I have left a post on the forum about trying to trace my old BSA and so far no joy,but  someone has posted me the ref number of the test centre it was last tested at in june 2009, any ideas where I trace the centre number from, the centre number is 862383389147,can you have a look at your own mot's to see if it match's anybody. Thanks Guys

"862383389147" isn't the testing station number. It's the individual MOT test certificate number.

Hi L.A.B thanks for that, just had a look, and been on all those web-sites still can't find its last location. If I had some idea where it was mot'd I would put an ad in local paper, o well now waiting on dvla to see if they might give me location. Many thanks again

write to DVLA, explaining what you want, and enclose a stamped address envelope with letter, to be forwards to whoever they have on record as owner.

It has worked for many.
