"OK 7095" no longer exists on the DVLA database, as far as I know. It could be a replica on a genuine 7 chassis, but who knows. Difficult to tell without seeing it. On a side note, an Austin 7 running properly wouldn't sound like a lawnmower-Too many cylinders!

It is on the DVLA database - just enter the make as Austin Seven ( not just Austin) & the reg. number for full details. Trust this helps. Geoff

OK 7095 at Curborough Austin 7 Track Day last weekend (19/03/16)...

It is great to see my old Brooklands car has arrived back in the UK after so many years in Europe. I gave the car a pat at the weekend at Beaulieu Austin 7 Rally and wished its new owner all the best with his endevours.

The engine does still make quite a row when at full throttle! But my lawn mower never sounded like that.....!

Re the Warwick Rally photos, Norman Purves restored both the 1922 Chummy and built the Racer. He said he put the OK 7095 number on the racer 'cause it suited the car, being unaware that it was actually in use elsewhere.

Thank you for the clarification Robin, I had come to that conclusion, without expressly being told as much, so it is nice to get a positive confirmation. As far as my information shows though Norman Purves A type tourer is 1923 not 1922 registered in March that year? I'd love to find out it was a '22 produced car but as far as the I know the third prototype #XL3 Reg OK3537 is the only known survivor produced in 1922.
