The owner told me that the provider stopped supporting free website space and he has no time anymore. There was someone who would take it over, but he never heared from him again.

However, he told me that all data is still saved. If anyone here is willing to host and support the register than feel free to contact the owner!

How can Serge be contacted? I am sure there are ways that the list can be published easily and safely online. I’d suggest taking owners names off it for data reasons.

Apologies Andrew, for the short reply on my side.

Thanks for posting up the list, your efforts are appreciated.

However, I would suggest that you don’t publish names of the owners as you leave yourself open to all sorts of data privacy issues / liabilities for which you don’t need/deserve the hassle.

Happy to assist with an electronic version of the register with the latest version of the data if that can be obtained.

Hi I have no idea who you are one reason i limit my posting on here as its like having a conversation discussion in a Pub full off people with masks on so you don't know who your taking to.
The Listing on the resister has always had peoples names if they want to have that added so not changing what has been historically been the way the register operated since it was started.
The work taken to do what i have done has taken ages as i am not IT trained.
I am good at getting things made and developing parts.
However as of yet i have not found a way of creating time apart from sleeping less waking in the night to take overseas calls and answer e mails and so on but creating a 36 hour day is still in development will let you know if i succeed.

Hi Andrew,

Andy Porter here. We had a nice chat on the phone a couple of weeks back and you sent me a windscreen for my Grantura, and I’ve been to visit you before to pick up parts in person (I had my Berkeley on the back of my trailer when I visited).

I’m not trying to detract from your efforts, I am sorry if it came across that way.

I appreciate the register previously had owners names on it too. I only mentioned it as now that the information is on your website, you become responsible for it and regulations around personal data are quite onerous. My comments are out of genuine concern for you that it may cause you unintended grief.

It was also a genuine offer of assistance. If the electronic data file can be secured, I can help with publishing it (one your website or elsewhere) in a compliant fashion.

Best regards
Andy

Hi All I have done some updates however an issue i am having is people messaging updates in lots of places
Some commenting on the post
Some sending messages in Messenger
Some sending Whatsapp Messages
Some Phoning
Some sending Texts
Some EMailing
When I sit down to do updates its taking as long to find the message as to do the update ?
Going Forward can all updates come as emails and the subject at the top of the E mail Grantura Register Update
Then in the email
Vin Number Reg Owner Name Location
This way when i sit down to update i can search Grantura Register Update on my e mails and the are all there then delete e mail when done then each time i check any e mails there need addressing
Thanks
Andrew
