you can check insurance for a UK reg vehicle by typing in MID (short for motor insurance database) but how do you check a Spanish vehicle?

Trucker, how are you able to check if a vehicle is insured please ?

[guest4538]

The car reg is showing to be insured and its a VOLKSWAGEN GOLF ADVANCE 1.9 TDI 130 5P 1

As you say it is currently insured, and the MOT lasts until 8 May 2018.

However, according to https://www.gov.uk/check-vehicle-tax, it is untaxed: the tax expired on 31^st March 2017.

Does it tell you to who or where the car is registered ?

The car is a UK plated silver VW Golf, reg number NL07JYB. The bloke in the car has either very short hair or shaved head and is wearing sunglasses. The other is short, stocky with dark hair. He speaks English and says his name is Paco.
