Answer 1

The DVLA will have records of where the number plate is.  They might forward a letter to the current owner for you, but will charge £5 if they agree to do this.

Answer 2

STOP TYPING IN CAPITALS, AND LEARN TO SPELT YOU SPASTIK

Answer 3

Don`t know if this helps but the number is on a Mercedes E320 CDI 3.2  2003, 4 owners, not stolen, not scrapped.

Answer 4

Simple solution. Re-order the plates. Tell them what happen to the original plates and you need replacements.
