It should not be a problem so long as it is wearing the same plates as recorded by dvla we are after all legally allowed private plates. It could be cloned but I'd doubt someone would be stupid enough to use the same vin on 4 different vehicles. How well do you know your local crime prevention team, might be worth running it past them see if they have any interest, equally though if you have been anywhere near an anpr equipped car you would have been tugged so don't worry too much. Have your insurance offered any explanation at all as to why?

The insurance are no help , "as brokers not the actual undewriters they can not offer advice " . No they are there to collect the premium premium!
That is after you finally get through to them!
Police angle pretty much the same around here , unless you upset a cyclist then you won't see one.

It does however look quite good though sitting on a plinth of concrete slabs at the stables , with the backdrop of cut fields and the horses , hare, pheasant mooching about .....so if anyone needs a photo opportunity for a rustic setting !!!!!

There must be an option and I'll find it .....when ? Well.....

Just a thought but have you tried it through the comparison sites see if it is just your particular underwriters being unnecessarily difficult?

I went onto compare sites and they all quote , it'll only show at the next stage of contacting the company ......but with 9 months left on my policy , I'd loose loads if I had to cancel it....as my no claims is on that policy.

I haven't contacted DVLA yet but it's got to worth a punt .

4 plates seems quite a lot, I wonder who has owned/used it and what for?

Is it modified in any way, or have modifications been declared?

You could check it's MOT history here, just need the reg, that might show up something.
