Assumed it would be with the plate, had seen it in some magazines too. We used to live fairly close to Maranello in Egham so used to see (& hear :D) all sorts of nice Ferraris...
 
There are several sites out there that use data from the DVLA database to provide basic details.

I tend to use http://www.tyre-shopper.co.uk/ts/search/VRMSearch.aspx, as it allows you to search by just entering the registration and it doesn't care whether they're taxed/insured/sorn'd/etc. It also often returns data that doesn't show up elsewhere, which suggests they are archiving older datasets rather than overwriting them. For instance, it returns my own cars' details whether I search on their original registrations or their private plates.

Word of warning, though: it does also seem to contain some frankly bonkers info. For instance, WV 1 is shown as being on a "5-door Austin Mini 1000 hathcback". It's actually on a Volvo V50...

No sign of 129 DXD, by the way.


Put my reg in and it came up as a Transit!!Brought the plate about 18 months ago from DVLA which had been on a Transit. Suppose theses site don't update too often. Put in a granddaughters number which has been on her little car for about the same time maybe longer and it found no trace! Another nomber in the family comes up as an SL were as on Euro car parts it's an SLK were the number is on an X%
 
GW55AMG on the same.
 
M8 XUS (MAXUS) seen on a ....yup, a Maxus van! Can't quite see why anyone would bother...
