Hi all,

Wondering if anybody has some advice.

Basically I bought a car back in March and did a check on 'instantcarcheck.co.uk' and everything came back clear.

Fast forward to yesterday and I decided to put it on Autotrader to sell and I was unable to post the car for sale as it stated to phone the security team. It was 8 pm so I thought that was strange so I did another check and it stated the car was stolen.

I went to 'isitnicked.com' and it stated it was stolen on 11/06/2000(yes 2000 NOT 2020)

So I called the police this morning and they stated it was stolen back in March.

They stated they will come and take the car and not to drive it etc.

Is it possible the police didn't update there records when I first did the check? Is it possible I have a case against them?

Just so you know the car was bought with both keys, all service history etc so nothing to think it was dodgy.

Thanks

I can assure you I am not being investigated. Wrong again rolleyes.gif


Yet

Do come back and give us an update with the ownership issue.


Just to update the thread.

Due to some friendly help from a user on this forum the car's 'stolen marker' has now been removed.

The car never left my possession and is now taxed, insured and having everyday use.

You've got to wonder if whoever sold it was trying to pull a fast one to get it back and keep the money!
