MoT history check anomaly
 

Had a look at a car today. Seemed in reasonable order. Belts and water pump replaced by a reputable garage around 10000 miles past. Invoice history of work done. However . . . when I did an MoT history check there is only one record (the most recent). My present cars give the, expected, multiple records.

Anyone else had a similar experience?

P.s. Why am I looking at yet another 75?

Could it have been on a private plate previous?

Imported from Ireland?

or just bought from Northern Ireland. We dont have MOT history checks here yet ........ barely have the ability to do MOTs at the minute lol

Invoice history is all from the same garage, local to the dealer selling the car and going back a few years. I thought any change in registration plate was included in the history?

sounds like it could have been on another plate, think a HPI check may show this, but I'd also speak to the garage or the previous owner. Most times I have had cars booked in for work, they'd always have it under the registration number and this would appear on the invoice as well.

I've put a private number on my car, the MOT history from the "old" registration has transferred to my private registration number.

Mine was screwed up for a week with old records on the old plate, latest on the new. Was sorted within a week. Probably what has happened here.
