no, thats what led me to search tbh, I couldnt find any info. Looks like my last outing was possibly MOT less.

If you can’t find it on the database then no one else can

Worth contacting DVLA maybe.

It’s obviously on at least one database as you’ve got it insured.

You could check that one as well.

Also you could do a cheap HPI search for around a tenner.

No point contacting the Police they don’t help in civil enquiries I’ve found.

V5 correct? Change of number plate perhaps?

I've sent an email to dvsa see what they come back with

Mine is the same, we have had it from new and three years old,in October. Doesn’t show a MOT required date

No change in registration number, however has been upplated from 3500 to 3850kg.

I was trying to work out what MOT required due to its weight.

Just the standard Class 4 MOT. The weight doesn’t come into it.

Regardless of what the history shows it should have had an MOT on 1st march this year.
Just get it tested then see what the record says.

Did you put a space before the last three letter? If so remove it.

Might sound silly but just a mere female none driver, would a zero 0 or letter o be in your reg and if mixed up cause the problem

how did you get on with this? Sorted?

 

[Derbyshire wanderer]

If over 3500kg the first MOT can be at 12 months depending on use so this may be the cause

Nope

My car last three letters are OOG & some insurers etc cannot recognise it. I think they may be putting 00G (ie 2 numbers & 1 alphabet instead of 3 alphabet)

Everything you need to know about the UK car number plate rules, and how to keep within the law.

Amongst other rules and info.

For example the letters ‘I’, ‘O’, ‘I’ and ‘Z’ are never seen on number plates because they look too similar to other letters or numbers.


The letter Q is not used currently either, but it was used as a prefix up to 2001 on stolen and recovered cars that couldn’t be reliably identified (e.g. ‘cut and shuts’) and kit cars made from elements of various different vehicles.
