Best Answer

It is not intended that the public has full access to the DVLA database.

However, from the UK government website you can find out various things about the vehicle, including:

  • when its current vehicle tax expires
  • when its MOT expires
  • the date it was first registered
  • SORN status
  • colour
  • engine size
  • year of manufacture
  • CO2 emissions
  • current vehicle tax rate

You must write to DVLA to request information about the current or previous registered keeper of a vehicle.

What is the DVLA database used for?

In the UK the "DVLA" means Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency. The DVLA database is therefore a record of all the driving licence information and the vehicles registered in Britain. It can be used by the police (and to some extent insurance companies) to check that a person is allowed to drive on British roads, if the vehicle being driven is taxed and insured and who actually owns a vehicle.
