the-blue-cloud Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Vehicle registration in GB Hi, I have a question about the registration for public roads. The DKW Munga had factory behind the right front wheel, a metal sign with the chassis number and the engine compartment, the manufacturer's plate. Both plates were riveted with rivets. So, there is not stamped or engraved number on the car. Is it today permitted to allow a car with riveted signs in GB? Or are changes needed? Which? Thanks in advance.

Sean N Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Yes, that's fine. Many older British (and German, and other) vehicles have riveted chassis plates without stamped numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the-blue-cloud Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 Is there a way to determine how many classic cars of a certain type are currently approved? I would be interested how many Munga currently exist in the UK and have an authorization? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean N Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I don't think there's an official source you can consult easily to find how many vehicles of a particular type are registered. Sites such as 'How Many Left' are the nearest you'll get, but very limited production or rare vehicles are often not listed, or listed as 'Missing Type'. How Many Left doesn't list Mungas, or even any Auto Union or DKW vehicles, and I cba to wade through the many pages of Audis in the hope of finding some! Putting registrations of known Mungas into DVLA's vehicle enquiry page using DKW, Auto Union, Audi or Missing as a make just brings up 'vehicle details could not be found'. A quick flick through the Munga Talk topic seems to show about 10 - 15 UK vehicles known to or owned by HMVF members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the-blue-cloud Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 Oh, what a mess ... There are some European neighbors with statistics on the Internet, with the Prussian thoroughness officials are researched hopefully .... Thanks for the information. I think the stock of DKW MUNGA is thus less than 50 vehicles in GB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
