Title: Registration research
Post by: cocico on June 22, 2025, 07:58:30 PM
Hi there,
I own a Sunbeam Model 8 with reg.No. AFS 171 and try to find out more about the history of the bike. What I already found out that it had been registered first in Edinborough somewhere between 1936/9. Frame No. 215410420. Does anyone have an idea where to find out more ?

Thanks in advance

Rolf

The number series AFS ran from July 1936 to July 1937, and your machine was probably registered in Late August/early September.
