Trying to view a webpage that no longer exists

[okv3]

Afternoon all,

I've searched Google for a VIN of a car that used to belong to my parents. Google returned one hit, however when I click on it, it comes up 404 page not found.

I've tried Wayback archive, Google cache search, and nothing comes up.

Does anyone have any other ideas? The webpage is here - https://ecooparts.com/fr/vehicule-mis-au-rebut/199...

It sounds like the car has been scrapped, but might be nice to see some photos of it if they had any.

Even if it is cached on the Wayback machine, very often it's just the text content and not any photos...especially with websites that have a database storing everything rather than being content applied at a per page level...so whilst Wayback machine may have a flag/link to the catalogue it probably couldn't / didn't / wasn't allowed to download the back-end database (or if the website robots.txt files specifically excludes it).

try - https://ecooparts.com/fr/vehicule-mis-au-rebut/199...

I archived it as well, just in case - https://web.archive.org/web/20250926112625/https:/...

Seems to have been the Google srsltid tracking tag that was throwing the spanner in the works.

You already tried the main tools (Wayback and Google cache). If nothing is there, the page is gone for good. Only chance is if someone saved screenshots or images elsewhere
