You won't for free, as that opens a massive can of DPA worms.

At least if you cross the DVLA's palm with silver, they'll forget about the DPA lol

there is some way you can do an instant check with a text on your mobile fone, i think its a few quid but dont know wot its called or any number for it cos i recently sold a car and the lad done a check there and then on the spot.

My mate did one of those text checks and he knew that his car was previously written off but it didnt come up with that.

The DVLA tax status will tell you if it is taxed, SORN'd or whatever but thats about as much information as you can get. I couldnt tell you what information you receive when paying for an HPI check bar the basics and if it is under finance, written off, stolen etc

Do you not know where the guy lives? Maybe worth going round and asking him if he still has it.

Most of the sites though would probably need a VIN number.
