I think the only people who can access that information online are police and scumbag parking companies

You may be able to write to Swansea customer services and explain why you need to contact them, otherwise the clues may be in the ashtrays, service books or the garage written on the mudflaps or tax disc holder, some mechanics may remember the vehicle

hi mart.
as long as it’s on the dvla database,then it should be a really simple process.you can go to the dvla office at swansea (near morganite)or apply on-line.i remember tracing the previous owners of my f88,back in 2000.it was only £5.00 then .probably a bit more now?

Hiya …first of all put the number and a photo on TN theres a good posibilty that someone on here drove the truck
or knew somone who has. just follow pete,s line of thought, one of my motorbikes was a muddle so i contacted DVLA
and got all the owners and a photocopy of the origanal fold up logbook from 1965 .I would,nt bother going into
the DVLA you,ll stand there for years, i delivered there years ago and the boss thought i,d been kidnapped i was
missing so long. go online or post a letter and you,ll need the correct postcode for that department, if you use the
wrong postcode your letter will go into the bin.theres a postcode for each department unless its been changed.

ho john,
re:posting on trucknet,that’s good advice mate,doh!,i didn’t think of that when i registered my peterbilt,i went into the dvla office on double best behaviour,told here how nice her hair looked and the next thing i knew,the paperwork was stamped,my truck registered and taxed,i was in and out like the sas!happy days.however,you are right in saying that dvla can be a nightmare on elm street.if the vehicle is not on the database then finding lord lucan riding sheerghar would be easier .
regards andrew

If push comes to shove, I got our Ferguson ( 1947) registered, using the engine number only. Unfortunately they couldn’t give me an original number, but as it’s a working tractor as well as the odd show, it doesn’t really matter. The Ferguson club will help if you’re stuck.

I know it’s not a lorry, but it’s still an old 'un ( not the wife ) !!

if it is just a registration document that you need, just go to the local DVLA office, fill in the correct form to apply for a new V5

explain to them that you have purchased the vehicle and the vendor did not have the V5 document, there is a fee for the replacement though

as long as you can provide the chassis number, engine number and the registration number, it should be fine

i have purchased finance repo trucks without the V5’s before and this is how i have gone about it.

hope this helps

theoretically, it should not matter what type of vehicle it is, they are all registered the same way

oh well, nobody’s perfect
