Hpi - VRM not recorded as scrapped by DVLA

Pugster

Hi - I'm looking at buying a 2010 quashqai privately. I've done a HPI check. The HPI hd no warnings, but can someone confirm what the following two lines mean?

VRM not recorded as exported
VRM not recorded as scrapped by DVLA

It had a couple of plate changes perhaps that has something to do with it?

The current plate was transferred to this vehicle on 20/02/2016
P8LYV was applied to this vehicle on 08/10/2014
There are no interests recorded against P8LYV
PF10FFT was applied to this vehicle on 13/07/2010
There are no interests recorded against PF10FFT

Thanks in advance. It sounds a bit worrying 'VRM not recorded as scrapped by DVLA'

Hi,

As far as I'm aware that's perfectly normal.

VRM refers to the Vehicle Registration Mark. The HPI check is simply confirming that the vehicle with this Registration has not been recorded as Scrapped or exported... the concern would be if the vehicle HAD been recorded as scrapped.

Oh i see I'm misreading the report! I was reading:

VRM not recorded, as exported
VRM not recorded, as scrapped by DVLA

ooops - thanks for taking the time to respond though. Cheers!
