Default My cars past???

I have owned my escort for 4 years now and would like to more about where it came from originally. I have got the details of the last 2 owners but would like to research back to when it was new. I spoke to someone in my local ford garage and when he put my chassis number into the system he said that it had Irish traits, it is on an irish plate so it makes sense i suppose.

Just wondering if anybody knew how i could get any of the information that i am looking for.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Thanks

You can fill out this form and send it to the DVLA.

They will give you a print out of any previous owners,mot's, plate changes etc... from the day it was new.
