I tried an enquiry on the DVLA website, this tells you the details of the vehicle, the part I look at is the date of liability (Exercise duty) so by this you can tell if it's still on the road, ok it dosen't neccessarily mean it's on the road as SORN etc, the other part I look at is the export marker as I think if it's listed as export it either means it has ben exported or scrapped.

However looking up your reg shows nothing?

If you actually wanted to find the address I think you can pay DVLA a small fee and they will disclose you the owners details IIRC.
