A name would be helpful if there is information that other users on this forum could provide. ie: ...I've heard of them and they are...... BTW, shame to see that you were shafted by a so called "specialists" Todd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were they a limited company? If so you can get the director's and shareholders names and addresses from Companies House for a small fee. It can be done online which should save your legs.

pat_pending Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Have they ceased trading or have they gone bust? not the same thing. If they've gone bust a firm of receivers will have been appointed to managed the winding up of the business. They have the power to secure any remaining assets on site and also to remove them to a safe place if unauthorised removal may be suspected. These will be held until such time as ownership can be established. Have you visited the premises to check the vehicle is not just locked inside? You need to find out exactly what is going on. The receivers should either be on site or have left their name and address on the entrance to the property. There should also be a notice in the local paper and if a ltd company, notice on the companies house web site and the London Gazette (also on line). Once you contact the receivers with proof of ownership they should be able to locate the vehicle. I don't know the details of the company, you say engine and gearbox specialists. Is it possible they just rebuild the units and use another local garage for fitting? If so the vehicle may be sitting in someone else's workshop. TBH I think you may as well name the company, as I think I know who it is already and it may get you some more help from those familiar with them.

Paul Humphreys Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I will be up that way tomorrow and will take a look at the yeard and see if I can see it. Also if I see then owner of the company I will ask him. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Humphreys Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I have spoken to Mr Ross and there is no sign of it where it was taken to or at his old place. I will alos ask the local offroad if anyone spots it or knows anything. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbocharger Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I think I'll wander completely off topic here and observe, completely independently, that there's also a company in Wrexham called LEGS who do engine and gearbox rebuilds. I know it's probably not relevant here but I thought I'd throw it in anyway. Good luck finding yr LR. It'll be very difficult to shift as a whole vehicle without the paperwork.
