What does this mean...?

[HSC911]

This Cosworth has the SABTVR VIN which indicates the car has been kit built from new and states on the specials notes on logbook

Could have been built from a new shell or could be stolen recovered but I doubt it'd be on a P plate if it were S/R

That number rings a bell, I'm pretty sure I've got a pic of that car at home, smashed up. think it was Aubergine or Ash black though

Must be a left over shell that was built up, looks a right mish mash of parts

window tints on an and check out the fuel filler

Stolen and brought to vehicle register office.

Stolen and brought to vehicle register office.

that's what I thought it was too.

rather than guessing what the crack is i think its safer to say its not a production factory car that was sold from a ford main agents,it could be this or that with a sabtvro vin but its not a normal ford dealer sold car

Had a 3 door like this years ago, the reason was it was stolen and recovered and they couldn't prove it was all original parts still on the car! So it got a SAB vin number!

How does that differ from a Q plate then chaps?
