This is weird. I've got the V5, the previous owner is listed as Andy Dea.

I can assure you it says 464 on the plate. I'll post some pics in the next couple of days.

You're right, very weird :shock:

Hope you get it sorted soon.

Andy was the first owner of the car, i've known him a while since the 106 and ibiza days. He sold it a few monthes ago to buy a ctr

That sounds about right, I got it off a dealer up in Stockton who said he'd had it for about 6 weeks or so.

This is very odd indeed.

Sounds very strange.

Been a lot of dodgey ads on pistonheads & ebay etc recently selling bogus cars. (cheap)

Hope this is not one of them.........

These are scams to get a deposit out of you rather than a physical car - they normally nick the pics and text off another ad.

Doesn't help the mystery of the two 464's though! I reckon it'd probably be a renault error, although I don't suppose they have kept a cross reference of VIN no's and Trophy no's so we may never know!

Right here you go, I've taken a load of photos this morning. I should say I'm a graphic designer/photographer so I could resist the urge to take some 'arty' ones too!

You can see that this is clearly numbered 464. I can only guess Renault made some mistake in the numbering.

Bit of info for you:

  • First registered: 26.10.2005

    Mileage: about 31,000

    Previous owners: 1 - Mr Andrew Dea

Hopefully they all worked, this is my first time posting pictures. If not you can view them on my flickr account here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/osphotography

Dont get me wrong but did you have the car HPI checked when you bought it? this should give you more info but they are not always up to date either but may help you.

no doubt the 2nd owner on the register holds the answer...maybe Jeremy Townsend (renault sport ) could be questioned...i have his e mail address PM me if you want it.
