    Vehicle history

    I'm not having much luck with motor reg in S.A - they do not provide vehicle history if I provide VIN, chassis numbers etc. Seems in other States you guys have a facility to search for original or owner history.

    Anyone have success in S.A. Is there a National database the public can get access to?

    I've never been given any info either, apart from telling me if a vehicle was still registered. I'd be kind of pissed if the RTA started giving out my details to people as well.

    You can't find out anything in NSW as I tried, its all about privacy, I told the RTA the number plates on our original van so I could chase up the guy who bought it from us, but got know where, I had forgotton his name.

    Vic records

    Havent tried it myself but (AOMC) vic - association of motoring clubs inc vic - are supposed to have the old vic roads card data base for rego's,engine numbers etc. They have a website if you google it. Expect it wouldnt have any personal details but if you were chasing original rego or confirmation for a date correct motor it would be handy.

    Records are sorted by engine numbers, not just original but any that have ever been in it. And only VIC rego.
