    Does anyone know how to retrieve the VIN from the reg number? I’ve already bought a car tell report and it didn’t have it. Car is a BMW

    You generally put the vin into the history check site once you view the car and it will tell you whether it's a match.

    Yes, that’s the option cartell gives you but I don't have the VIN yet. Any other ideas?

    But you will have once you view the car and that part of the report stays open to allow you to check at that stage.
    I don't see what issue you have.

    I want the VIN before I see the car so I can see the exact spec from BMW.

    Edit:
    Post re cloning not applicable.

    Ask the seller then.
