Anyone know how or where I can find a database for car registration numbers and make and models similar to those insurance websites that can find your car make and model by what registration it is?

Urm, I don't know if you've heard of this site called google, but if you search with the right terms it gives you answers like:Quote:

(Or are you coding something which req. an API?)
Urm I don't know if you have heard of reading but none of these links are at all useful to me.
I am looking to get a copy of the database itself as in a local copy of just registration number and car make and model (and maybe colour). I actually need the physical database not an API to someone else's as the program has to access this data whilst offline.
Kind of creepy, but I don't think there is such a thing. I had a look around too and couldn't find much.
I don't think that's possible and it'd probably be a rather big file..Quote:

If it for a school / college / uni project just enter aload of dummy data =]
My guess is you'd have to contact the DVLA for it.
This. And I doub't they'd give it out.Quote:

Sorry- already posted. Ignore.

And enter the registration plate. Sorted :)
Edit: Saw the above posts, sorry I couldn't help you.
I'm not sure what kind of registration data is required, but I bought a database of Makes and Model on the website https://car2db.com
There are a number of engines and markings series cars.
