    There is a place in Rosslare that can give you the entire history of a car if you give them the chassis number. Its how the VRT offices get the history of all the imported cars, haven't a breeze how to contact them though

    I'd use the chassis number off the car as well as the old UK plate when getting a history check done from the UK.

    HPI check as above. Give the chassis number / reg etc. You can enter the details online.

    Agreed it seems like a Uk reg , Your VRT office should be able to tell you when and where your car was inported from .

    That car would have originally been registered in Chelmsford between March and August 2001.
