While looking through an extensive service history of a car I've put a deposit on, I found an Experian AutoCheck from 2010. It has a message from the DVLA/DVLNI saying "Car was used before first registration. Car used before being registered in the UK."
The year of first registration and year of manufacture are both 2004. So what does this mean? Is it anything to worry about? |

Never heard of that before. Used for what? It must be legal though, surely?
