craig nicholas Posted September 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 That was my first port of call before viewing the vehicle but thankyou for your time. Its had 10 owners 😳 on appearance, all 10 owners must have had some passion in keeping it straight and in order. Be nice to find some of the previous owners and its life stories.

Badwolf Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 I got a full list of previous owners for mine from the DVLA but I'm sure that I read on the forum that they don't do that now due to the new data protection rules. It might be worth a polite (begging) letter to the DVLA though. You never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig nicholas Posted September 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 No DVLA wont provide that information anymore , from what I'm told, previous owners information is no longer on v5 documents for the same reason, data protection.

Sorry guys I've no intention of giving you anything. It's only a printer and there's no guarantee my details won't be sold on to someone else. Secondly: for years I've been bombarded with freebies, offers and services that I never signed up for, I've had refusals for strange bank or shop credit cards, probably because some prat with one of my old V5s gave my name and address when asked, instead of his own. Sadly we can no longer trust anyone with our personal data, so why give them your name and address on a document for them to use for Gawd only knows what? It's not the guy you sell it to, it's the one he sells it to, or the next... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
