    Default Access to a Registration and Car Make / model database.

    Anyone know how or where I can find a database for car registration numbers and make and models similar to those insurance websites that can find your car make and model by what registration it is?

    Urm, I don't know if you've heard of this site called google, but if you search with the right terms it gives you answers like:
    http://www.businessdata.co.uk/car-check.html

    and

    http://www.taxdisc.direct.gov.uk/

    (Or are you coding something which req. an API?)

    Urm I don't know if you have heard of reading but none of these links are at all useful to me.

    I am looking to get a copy of the database itself as in a local copy of just registration number and car make and model (and maybe colour). I actually need the physical database not an API to someone else's as the program has to access this data whilst offline.

    Kind of creepy, but I don't think there is such a thing. I had a look around too and couldn't find much.

    I don't think that's possible and it'd probably be a rather big file..

    OT: Are you planning to steal cars in order to fund Habbox?

    My guess is you'd have to contact the DVLA for it.

    This. And I doub't they'd give it out.

    My guess would be that all of the sites using it at the moment use some kind of API to the DVLA rather than having a copy for themselves.
