It'd be a bargain if it had the engine.

We have our own man to help with that, one of the advantages of being part of the rumcars community. Once authenticated by our representative to be what it says it is an age related number can be obtained.

The Berkeley Enthusiasts Club often have 328cc Excelsior engines and spares advertised for sale in their great magazine.

I probably prefer the 4 wheels one, it looks like a small AC cobra
In france it's not very difficult to make new register, we juste need to find this car in france around 1950..

Bob do you know if the car can get a verification as it is or does it needs restoration first ?

Dear Tibo

Seeing as the Berkeley is being sold by Bambycars in Lincolnshire it is not surprising that you can see a Peel Trident replica in the background. In the background is also the P50 mould and quadbike bits that some of the suspension parts are taken. Alan Evens is obviously clearing the decks. I wonder what for?

I am surprised that so many people who use the Forum never seem to look at our Web site.  I know it has not been changed for a long time but the basic information as to what services the Register of Unusual Microcars can offer has not changed with regard to getting original number plates recognised by the DVLA, obtaining age-related plates and issuing official dating letters. Just get your car on to the Register via  Alastair Lauchland and then make contact with Mike Shepherd to authenticate your car when dealing with the DVLA.  He is in constant touch with the new regulations as they are bought out by the DVLA and can tell you how to go about things.  Jean
