No copper would risk using PNC to do a check. It'd be instant dismissal from the force.

They wont give the address out like that - they'll get intouch with the person themselves to ask them to move the car & the person will be like "wtf you on about"?

Send off to the DVLA for a logbook for that car

saying you claimed it as your own or however you can do it

then when you get it thru

his/her name and address will be on there as previous owner.

sorta might work,,, yeaaaaaaah

Dunno if theres a website or something you could look on? Or if you know anyone who works for a big insurance company? could be worth a try you might find they insure them. If i still worked for norwich union i'd of had a look for you.

Like the quote in your sig by the way
