Hi
Has anyone ever come across a 1954 Empire Green 4 door saloon registration VRA 625,i sold the car approx. 25 years ago when short of money to a chap from the London area when it was still in outstanding condition ,I would be interested to find out if its still around, i bought it from the original owner a spinster school teacher who had really looked after the car from new and can inform the owner of the cars history.
many thanks

Thank You for posting these pictures,it is brilliant to know the car is being looked after so well,it had a very low mileage and was in perfect condition when i foolishly sold it all those years ago.
If anyone knows who the current owner is ask them to contact me at davidtseymour@hotmail.com as i have lots of old photos of the car at rallies in the 1980's.
Thank you also to Andrew for calling me to tell me about the post !

My old Beetle is a VRA. Derby registered? Great to discover that the car has become a national treasure.

*RA registrations were Derbyshire county issues from Matlock. VRA was not a 'Derby' city issue. They only issued reg numbers ending in CH or RC.

Thanks for the details. I bought the beetle in Derby about 10yrs ago and was told it was a local car. Oddly we lived in Matlock for 15 years!
