Best Way To Check A Number Plate

Morning guys, what is the best way to check the number plate of a car I have seen, specifically that the model matches the registration?

If its a Vw, you can give VW customer services a call.. you can enquire about the service history warranty claims etc whilst you are on the line to them.

Hope this helps

Ah, must be on a Private Plate because it's not being recognised. Cheers.

Dunno if it's the best way but I usually use something like moneysupermarket.com, and type in the reg of the vehicle. Usually will automatically identify the correct make/model, unless it's been entered incorrectly into the database.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

The reason I was interested is that it looked like a MKV GTI being sold on an 03 plate...

im sure if you can get the vin number, VW can check their database using that.
