Who owns a car - HPI question

[camshafted]

Can anyone help me?

When doing a HPI check, will it tell you the name of the car's owner?

[Small Car]

Only if it is owed by a finance company. Not a named individual.

No, HPI will tell you any body that has registered a financial security on the vehicle, history of number plate changes, write offs, thefts, number of owners and DVLA data. Some will include a mileage search but these are notoriously unreliable.

You would need to contact DVLA to find the owner.

[clarkey]

Slightly pedantic, but the DVLA don't know who the owner is, they only know the registered keeper, which isn't the same thing.
