A mate of mine is turning 50 next year and his daughter is trying to reunite him with the bright orange beetle (reg YOU312J) he used to own. It's still on the road according to DVLA so does anyone know of its whereabouts?

Currently driving a 1972 BMW 1602 as my daily. Don't ask about previous cars - there have been way too many and I stopped counting at 160!

I could be totally wrong here... However.
I'm sure someone said on here recently they managed to locate a vehicle by going back through the mot test numbers or something on the mot checker. They then approached the mot centre and some how managed to get in contact with the vehicle owner.

To be fair that guy ordered a replacement MOT for the car then tracked it that way, which although has good intentions, I wouldn't be happy about if someone tracked my car that way..

According to the government sites it's taxed and MOTd still, annoyingly the online database doesn't show the address of the test centre.

You could try submitting a v888 as a FOI request. No guarantee it will work though and it will take a while.

Thanks for all the suggestions and info guys.
The best info puts it in the North Bristol area (Cribbs), so I'm checking local FB pages etc.
