Fiat Heritage Certificate Response Times Experience?

Hello X1/9 Fellow Enthusiasts. I applied in October 2023 to FCA Heritage for their service to establish the manufacturing details of my X1/9. I did receive confirmation of my request but then heard nothing. I messaged again in January 2024 & they confirmed it was still live - but no indication of expected response. Has anyone else used their service & any advice/experiences to offer? The reason for my request is to establish the ACTUAL manufacturing date & when I can go for the rolling 40 year Tax & MOT exemption. My car is a 1500 VS, on a D plate, registered 1st May 1987. From my own trawl through the available online info, its build date could be Prior to March 1986. Any advice/experience from club experts or owners is greatly appreciated. Best Regards! Tom (Durham)

Hi,

A similar query was posted on the forum a few years ago:

Thanks for that Keith... it all helps!
I'm still hoping FCA Heritage finally come back with the answers.. I will post any updates of course.

Best Regards
Tom
