Is my mk5 still alive
Is my mk5 still alive
I built it in 1972 DMB 18K finished in ford daytona yellow. Does anyone know its present history. What a fantastic car, family forced sale. The buyer bought it instantly when I took him for a spin around Ormskirk. Not knowing the roads managed to impress with the cars handling on a blind bend.

DVLA show DMB 18K as being Red and last taxed 1.4.81. Seems it may be in the standard Davrian position...in a garage somewhere awaiting attention!.

Hello Barry,
Yes your Davrian is still alive.I bought it 1984 from Park Garage in Bournemouth. I used it for a couple of years and then it was stored in a barn for some 15 years.
8 years ago I did a rebuild , and my sons and I use it with great enjoiment. It is now red but was originally yellow.
Best regards
Lars
