Whilst investigating a potential new purchase ( C215 ) it's mot history showed up a worrying 4 year gap (2018 - 2021). Is it possible to checkup on a particular vehicle to tell weather it was Sorn in previous years?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Does the service history cover the missing dates?

Service history for the mot gap is blank .
So I guess that's suggestive of it being Sorn?

In that case I think I'd find another car personally.
Cars don't like standing unused.
