Title: Appia YFF248 Post by: HF_Dave on 10 March, 2016, 08:55:30 AM I am trying to register this little Appia in Ireland and am having trouble with the first registration date . there seems to be a problem with the date given in form from the UK . The date given for the first registration is 2014 . that's a mistake it might have changed hands on this date but ??? but it can't be the first registration . the details are Lancia Appia, reg No YFF248, vin C10113371. If anyone has any information or if they can tell me where or what form I would need to get from the DVLA in order to obtain a log book . kind regards David ???
Title: Re: Appia YFF248 Post by: mikeC on 10 March, 2016, 05:15:11 PM The YFF series was issued by the DVLA as 'age-related' numbers for cars without a valid original number. Either your car had lost its original number for some reason, or it was a recent import, but technically it may well be 'first registered' in 2014. Either way, the V5C should also declare an original date of manufacture.

I used them to help get paperwork for my 3rd series when I had no papers at all. Title: Re: Appia YFF248 Post by: lancialulu on 11 March, 2016, 07:26:37 AM Dave, I think its a V62 and £25 to DVLA but you may need a UK address?
