I can remember my home phone number and the reg of the family car from the early 80s but I'm not posting them as that makes them good potential secret question answers.

SAD 180G - hillman minx? is that even a thing? yes. image search turns up all sorts, but this would've been a '67 or '68 which are the boxiest, least-Noddy of them all.

does that MOT record mean it's still on the road? it was grey, but not sure if it was dark or light (the moggy was light grey)
― koogs, Tuesday, 12 October 2021 18:05 (two years ago) link
No, it’s not still on the road. Separate gov.uk tool shows its tax ran out in 1985.

don't heritage cars not need tax?
> Vehicles exempt from vehicle tax> If your vehicle was built before 1 January 1981, you can stop paying vehicle tax from 1 April 2021.
anything over 40 years doesn't need taxing. or rather it does need taxing but you don't need to pay for it. so that's not the case here (and wouldn't've been for a 68 car in 85) so it's dead. and died so young!

I looked up the only family car whose plate I could remember, an Escort registered in 1977, and it shows as untaxed from even earlier in ‘85, so your Minx didn’t do too badly. Thinking about it, ours was nicked so I guess that’s where it met its end.

there must been other cars, but i can only remember a white mini cooper other than those, and that was years ago. my brother would get pulled over by the police on a weekly basis driving that - it made him look underage
