does anyone know of any sites where you can find your old cars?
Get friendly with a local copper, they don't seem to have any problems doing it !
The DVLA can, but in my experience they need a VERY good reason for letting you know, ie just wanting to trace your old cars is not enough.
Also there is the Data Protection act, which pretty much stops anyone giving out any names or adresses.
Although there is a site, a bit like Friends reunited that does it, but only if the owners have registered.
Here you go.....

You can get a good idea if it's still on the road and by looking it up on the dvla car check site.

Going to need a good reason for the DVLA or a bent copper to get a name and address if it's not on the cars reunited web site.
DVLA handily supply a set of 'good reasons' which an imaginative person might be able to make use of.

DVLA on above Link
"minor hit and run incidents – to help trace keepers of vehicles involved in minor hit and run incidents not warranting a full police investigation.Circumstances could include incidents of personal injury or damage to property "
I'm sure they do, but it does say " a full police investigation".
It's not as if a hit and run is as important as displaying a golliwog in a shop window

But only as good as the current owners allow it to be.
