It's a V8 Vantage, 2015 manual coupe with 26,000 miles. Current plate is W1 BLO but previous registration was HF15 TBC I think.
I have put a deposit on it but since it's had a stage 3 Bamford Rose upgrade I wondered if it was known on here.

You could always try and ask Bamford Rose smile

Yes, did that. Mike asked me if I knew who the previous owner was, which I don't. Hence this post, I'm perhaps thinking the previous owner might be on here.

Presumably you are not asking Mike about the previous owner right? You are asking about the vehicle history using a VIN number?. There is no GDPR issue with sharing that data (especially as the prospective owner so its about your car).

I know Mike, because he looks after my car.
Doubt he was being obstructive, but maybe his records are based on customer name.
When I telephone and give my name, he quickly seems to be familiar with when my car made the last workshop visit.

Correct. I have no wish to investigate the previous owner, only the car. It's just a bit of due diligence, wondering if there's any issues lurking that Bamford Rose might alert me to.
Perhaps I'll ask the supplying dealer for the VIN number.
