I have tried to do two text checks on the reg and the car has come back with no records found at all. They never even charged for the texts. I have been told the car has been off the road since 96/97 so would the Dvla have assumed it scrap if it wasn't sorned?

Thanks in advance.

 

probably a bit late as its changed hands again now but it was my m8's, he bought it a couple of years ago as part of a house clearance, been garaged since 1995! new owner is doing a concourse resto on it
