Multiple Cars from Multiple Dealers - too many to remember

Options
Since 2007 we as a couple must have gone through at least 15 or 16 cars I think, all on finance, but there is no way I have any paperwork backwards from even 2022, never mind 2007 - I've seen an advert on youtube that says you can enter your name, and get all car finance deals that you've taken out, but I've got a feeling it may be a scam of some sort, so I'm not going there. Has anyone any idea how I can go about finding out any of the information needed. With a bit of luck I could probably remember the cars, but not all the registrations and dealers, and definitely not the finance companies involved. Advice please !!

    Correct.  Your lending data is not in the public domain and no third party can find out.

    Your own records are the only source for very old stuff but your credit report may have recent lenders still on it.
