If, and its only an if, ring plod shop state your buying xxxxxxx reg of vehicle, state you do not wish to purchase a stolen vehicle, and they will sometimes check it, and then they will tell you only that its not stolen.

This they can do as they are not telling you any of the keepers info therefore no breach of data protection.

Best of Luck.

You can do it, relatively easily as well. Contact the DVLA with a valid reason and they will give you the registered keepers address. (I think it may cost £2.50)

It happened to my old man in the summer when he parked on a video shop car park. 3 months later he got a letter through saying they wanted a £200 fine for improper use of their carpark (It shouldn't take 3 months obviously, but his went through the leasing company etc)

You can obtain the name and address of the registered keeper of a vehicle if you can show reasonable cause for needing the information.

Members of the public will need to complete form V888. Companies can either complete form VQ3 or apply in writing giving full details of the reason for the enquiry and the vehicle registration mark. Both forms are available from DVLA.

The fee for information at a specific date of event is £2.50 per vehicle. If further information is required, for instance, a copy of a document or additional keeper information, a fee of £5 is required per vehicle.

Send your application to: Vehicle Record Enquiries, Vehicle Customer Services, DVLA, Swansea SA99 1AJ.

It is an offence to unlawfully obtain personal data which is contrary to Section 55 of the Data Protection Act 1998. Unlimited fines in the Crown Court (or to a maximum of £5,000 in the Magistrates Court) exist as penalties in respect of these offences.
