When did I buy a previous car

luckybert

I'm doing a claim and am asked when I owned my vehicle. I have a rough idea but it was about 2012 or 2013. I have no emails/documents etc and I've changed my bank since then and can't recall who I had a loan out with. 
I know the registration and I also know where I bought it from but don't know how to find out the info I need
Ideally I need to know the date I bought the car and also the finance I had to pay the purchase of it off.

What "claim" are you making? Discretionary Commission?

Does V5 not give a date of change of ownership?

Can I see that online as I don't have the V5 or ANY documents. I bought this car around 2012/2013 so over 10 years ago.

V5 would have when the registered keeper changed, there is no public record of vehicle ownership.

When did you dispose of the vehicle?

I sold the vehicle (part exchanged with my current car) in Sept 2019

Was the vehicle MOT'd just before you bought it?

An online check will show dates and might offer some clues?

It might have been I imagine, I don't know where to go online to find such information.

What financial loss did you suffer?  The claims infuriate me.
