Vin number trace

The request was partially successful.

Dear Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency,
I recently bought a van with no registration plates from a car salvage auction. The van in question was bought by a company who was going to turn them into electric vehicles but sadly the company went into liquidation and the liquidators sold all of the fleet off at auction, this van is brand new with 1 kilometre on the clock and has been sat around for a few years now. I contacted ford who said that the van was registered in 2011 but couldn't give me details as it's against data protection laws, is there any way I can obtain the registration just by the vin?

Yours faithfully, T R Crane

Dear Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency,
I requested information regarding a vehicle registration I need for a vehicle bought with no registration number just the chassis number, the vehicle was sold by a liquidation company as they were in the process of being converted into electric vehicles but the company went into liquidation so I have no way of finding out if it registered or not the chassis number is SELLUXXTTPUBP16531. Ford transit connect in white, left hand drive.

Yours faithfully,

Thomas crane
