License plates! Who never thought about getting information to know more about a car or its owner with this number combination? We are going to find out together what you can know about a car and you can't.
Regularly, you ask us about information that you need about license plates. We are going to try to answer each question that you could ask yourself the most complete way as possible.
Yes, you can! Several internet websites offers this kind of service, the main one is directly from the government and is using the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) files. This is probably the most complete and useful website to obtain information. You can find it right here and all you have to do is type the Registration number and the make of the car.
If you don’t know the manufacturer, you can use a site like this one and you will obtain some minor information about the car, like the brand. Then, use it on the governmental website to have more information.
Using these websites will give you a whole lot of information about the car in question. Its date of first registration, its year of manufacture, its motor, the type of fuel it use and its original color.
Some websites offers you the opportunity to give you more information about one or several vehicles, useful before a purchase. Only the police, the government and the cars insurance companies have an access to more information. Some car dealers may have those information too. However, those information remains private, except for those issued in this article. Feel free to contact us if you have any question, we'll try and do our best to answer.

Mordu de voitures depuis ma plus tendre enfance, j'ai d'abord fondé mon propre blog avant de rejoindre celui-ci en 2016. Grâce à lui, j'ai pu prendre en main quelques unes de mes autos favorites, et grâce à vous, ce n'est pas prêt de s'arrêter. Adepte de la philosophie "light is right", je préfère une 205 Rallye à une Audi A8 Limousine. |
