If an RAC check comes back with “THIS CAR HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN STOLEN” and Autotrader won’t allow a for sale listing to be created for that reg with a message stating “We are unable to place this advert, please contact us at vehicle.check@autotrader.co.uk.” does this mean the car is listed as stolen and never recovered/resolved? It’s a 57 plate and only worth about £2K.

HPI check surely?

My guess would be stolen and recovered.

You can check "live" PNC theft reports at: https://isitnicked.com/ worth a check to see if it's rejecting based on that or something else.
