Another Elan history question.

Hi All. First post here. From Queensland, Australia.
I have an elan that I've owned for about 22 years. I just recently wrote to the factory and got some details on it.
When I bought the car in South Australia I was told that the original owner owned a Ford dealer in Adelaide and bought the car in the UK while over there. The owners manual says it was an E Owen of Somerton Park.
The nice chap from Lotus said it was sold to the UK market as a kit. It was deliverd through Plough Motors in Stonehouse Gloucestershire.
Which all seems to match. The question I have is there any way I can find out what the original registration was of the car? The chassis is 45/9101. Thanks!
