Well done finding that Geoff. I won't even ask how you found that. It looks like it's traveled a bit. :) Cheers Geoff.

 

He searched lxn652. 5th. result

 

I can't get that image on the fifth result. In fact first time I checked before posting I didn't see anything relative. Maybe I introduced a typeo.

If you don't find it on Google you can always take the first step of paying the daily congestion charge for London (UK registered cars only) at: https://congestioncharging.tfl.gov.uk/b/pb/provideVRM.facesYou do NOT need to log into an account.

 

In this case doesn't give the model but it often does.  Particularly useful for modern cars that "all look the same".

 

Just another spanner/wrench in the toolbox.

there are better ones than the london page, the AA and RAC in uk both do one,

 

and this even tells you when the cars last date of liability is (eg when its road tax is due / ran out). and engine info (fuel type) etc

 

im on lots of car forums (another hobby) and lots of people ask if their old car is around still etc, and people screenshot these to show them.

 

eg if a car hasnt got tax, for some classic cars its usual to only tax for the "show season" but if tax is years out, its probably dead.

Or try a car parts or an MoT (Halfords, KwikFit) web site, they ask for the reg no and usually show the model. For cars at least, possibly not the same for commercial vehicles above 3tonnes (Class 7 and up)

 

Just checked and it probably only works for those cars that need MoT, post 1976? Did not recognise the OP's query
