    I don't think there's any suggestion that the purchase contract was between the OP and the broker.
    In which case that would actually point to the OP as the 2nd owner as well as 2nd keeper. As with most of these shady pre-reg deals the cars are generally sold to the fleet/broker first in order to get the big fleet discounts but delivered to the broker's customer.

    OP, just for clarification who did you actually buy the car from - the broker/fleet co or the dealer?
    OP wont say as its probably plastered all over their website that its a pre-registered car.
