Does this pale blue S1 Fulvia Berlina GTE reg no VGY44G ring a bell with anyone?

I took the accompanying photo of this lovely car at the Fulvia 25 at Goodwood.
The car was last taxed in 2007 according to the DVLA and if it still exists I would like to contact the owner.
The car doesn't appear in any LMC Registers going back to 1995 and yet it attended this club event. Does anyone have any idea who owned it, if it still exists and where it is now?

No replies to this post from November - did the car just die in 2007? Such a shame because it was in fine condition at the Fulvia 25.

Chris,
I believe it's possible to trace the owner via the DVLA for a fee, it's still shown on the systems which implies that it hasn't been written off yet, and probably hasn't been disposed of by other means since it was due for tax renewal as you said in 2007,which in itself indicates that it was running in 2006.
I have vague recollections of seeing a photo of this car around that time but I don't think there was any indication who the owner was, I seem to recollect that it looked in good condition, but I've never come across it since I first found "Fay" in 1997.
I was going to say the Fulvia 25 was a long time ago and plenty of time for it to have gone down hill, but since it was still road legal in 2006 this doesn't appear to have been the case.

Well I have tried the DVLA Brian and they have refused to give me details of the current registered keeper - data protection and all that.
So the good news is that the vehicle would appear to exist.........but how to locate it?
I wonder if it was listed in the Fulvia 25 info?
Any info will be very gratefully received please.

This car was sold at Bonhams London on Feb 24th 2003 for £2,300 so it must have been in pretty good condition. Makes me want to find it even more! But how?

Hello Chris

I know this does not help your search, but it is one of those strange co-incidences.  The Fulvia Sedan is parked next to a white Fulvia 1600HF, which I bought from its then Edinburgh owner in 1998.  It is parked next to Martin Cliffe's white Fulvia Sport 1600.  Both these white Fulvias made the return pilgrimage to Fulvia 50, although the Sedan did not!

Regards - Roddy

Its been over a year so I wonder whether anyone has come across this Fulvia GTE Sedan in the meantime?
I live in hope.

No Richard it's still there and the steering wheel only just get's in part of the photo, butit looks pretty sick, doors knackered , the rear sitting down badly, part of the air cleaner missing, it would cost much more thn it's final worth to restore it.
