If it hasn't been taxed since 2009 my guess is its dead mate. If it were SORN it would say so on the date of liability

It's one of a few things...
Either getting restored, sitting rotting away, or scraped. Hopefully still alive and well.

Where did it sell to?

My old Van also, before me it was only one owner it belonged to a Garage in Preston since new, Sign writing could still be seen under red paint

I blew it`s Engine up at licence losing speeds on the M6 then fitted a new one, fitted a GTE front half interior, Welded on new sills and welded seat rails, converted it from 4 speed to 5 speed and a few other wee jobs like replacing window regulator and window on passenger side etc

Sold it in 2007 with Mot & Tax
