Hi,
I've just bought an Elan plus 2 and am looking for any history I can find.
I only have the log book.
Is there a way I can find any ?
Thanks
Andrew

DVLA have stopped giving out info via V888 forms for a little while now.

You could start by getting its MOT history online. You could post it’s reg number on here and ask for info. DVLA no longer give out info due to GPDR.

Hi
Hijack time......
How about my latest arrival, 1971 plus 2s EPD 490J? And also curious about my other, a 1969 +2 SAC 235G.
SAC I know was raced by the PO.
All the best

Zetec+ 2 under const, also 130S. And another 130S for complete restoration. Previously Racing green +2s with green tints. Yellow +2 and a couple of others, all missed. Great to be back 04/11/2021 although its all starting to get a bit out of control.

You'd be better off starting a separate thread on each car. Chance of previous owner being active on here are low, so you really trying to make sure it pops up in google if a previous owner decides to try find out what happened to their car.
A dedicated thread with reg in it is probably likely to be more successful at that.
'73 +2 130/5 RHD, now on the road and very slowly rolling though a "restoration"

MOT check shows around 500 miles in 15 years and quite a few faults

A month ago I posted a suggestion under Questions and Suggestions to the editor, that the site is modified to include a pernament category ' Seeking my car's history' for poeple like you..and me who buy a car and seek info from others who might know, or indeed have owned that car, about the history of the car.. Correspondingly, its somewhere that poeple who potentially have history info they can periidically visit, check share and potentially provide valuable onfo to the history seeker...A number of poeple supported the idea, I wrote to the editor and still waiting..! See my post..

If the site owner was thinking of updating the platform, I think a far more useful addition would be a forum titled INTERIOR.
