Highly unlikely, Data Protection Act et al......

You can find out a rough idea of where the reg-plate was originally registered for (although I can't remember the website that lists them all - Google it?), but it's highly unlikely that the car will have stayed in close proximity to the garage the plate was originally sent to.
