Can't you get some info from the DMV? Here in Norway you can go to them with your licence plate number and they they will print you a list of all former owners and where they lived at the time. Then just look them up in the phone book and give them a call. No idea if that works in the UK thought. my ex doka syncro came with no history, but after a visit there i found out I'll was the 9th owner, the first two (86-98) were two different sections of the same power company, then a few other people, then it was unregistered for half a year in 05 (re-registered on the same guy afterword) and then a few more owners (all still in the same region where it was originally sold). Then I bought it as the third owner in less than a year and brought it 500km north. Sold it this Saturday to a guy who brought it back to the same town I bought it in. Kind of fun to know all that kind of stuff. That syncro is now on it's tenth owner and still has less than 160000km on it. Had a hard life thought.

Can we do this in the UK?

If you look under your dash on the left hand side by the door you might find the Mcodes. Try this site

I put my Westies details in and got all the info that VW are charging 35 euros for.

I think you can still get a list of previous keepers in the UK from the DVLA for a price.

It used to be free to get the info. As a teenager I remember being amazed that my FS1E DX had had fourteen owners in six years and the first one had written it off! Sometimes its better not to know

[Bilbo Blue]

Contact DVLA, they will supply a copy of all the info they have on the vehicle. Tis interesting reading!
