Can you look up previous owners by VIN?

Yes. Pay a visit to any VIN check site and get this information easily. Print the key into the search box, press "Enter" - and you'll immediately see a report about the car's history, including the data about the previous owner (or several owners).

Does a V5 show all previous owners?

Is previous owner information in the V5 Logbook? No. Only the current keeper plus the previous keeper information is shown in the V5 logbook.

Will DVLA tell me who owns a car?

It's not as straight-forward as you might think to find vehicle owner information by using nothing but the number plate (VRM). The DVLA don't hand out this information to just anyone, so you need to jump through a few hoops to get it.

How do you check a car's history for free?

You can get a free VIN check at the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB), VehicleHistory.com or iSeeCars.com/VIN. Just pop in your car's digits and these sites will do the VIN lookup and give you information on the vehicle.

Can you view your V5C online?

Registered keeper details will be on the V5c registration document and you should never buy a used car without seeing the V5c. You can check vehicle details online using DVLA's vehicle enquiry service if you know the make and registration number, but keeper details are much harder to verify if you don't have the V5c.

Does a car dealer count as an owner?

The practice of dealers registering cars to themselves went out of the window years ago with the change in the Registration Documents, and although technically the dealer owns the car that he sold to you, they are never a registered keeper and quite rightly so.

Do previous owners numbers include me?

The previous owner's count doesn't include the current owner. For instance, if you see three previous owners in the logbook, it means the fourth owner is the current owner, and you'll be the fifth.

Can you find out who owns a car UK?

Unfortunately, no. No car data check provider in the UK, not even the HPI Check, gives you the registered keeper's details or whereabouts. You can, however, request the DVLA (we will explain the procedure later) to find the owner of a car.

Can I find the owner of a car with the license plate number UK?

Can you find out who owns it? Not really. The only people who have access to that sort of information are the police and the DVLA and neither of them will divulge it as it is covered by the Data Protection Act. The only hope you have of finding the owner is if you spot the car on the road.

How do I tell DVLA my car is scrapped without logbook?

You must write a letter by post to the DVLA notifying them of the sale and giving them specific details regarding your vehicle, the scrap yard and the sale. They will need to know your vehicle's model and make and registration number and the exact date the transaction took place.
