Dear Bob and Rob

What I want to know is how Rob knows exactly which car the registration is on? Has Rob hacked into the DVLA database? or does the owner of a BMW 320d sport estate live in Polgate and spends his time restoring 1950's Three wheel microcars for a hobby??

We think we should be told the truth!!!

Hi Chris. I'm sure Rob would love you to think he is clever enough to hack into secret files but the fact is they are not secret, all he doesis tap the number into a box on the DVLA website and it brings up the vehicle details, anyone can do it.

Hi Chris and Bob,

With DVLA you have to put in a make of vehicle. You don't need to with mycarcheck.

Dear Rob and Bob

And there was me thinking you guys had friends in high places in the police force, or the DVLA and could get this information through the old boy network!

Dear Tobias

I sometimes forget that people from all over the world are reading our messages and it must seem like we are speaking a different English language to that your were taught in school.

Friends in high places, mean people who have positions of responsibility in government, not a person who sits on top of a mountain.

The Old Boys Network, is nothing to do with computers it means the network of friends that you meet when you were at school or university, before computers were invented.

DVLA is the government depatment that registers all of our vehicles and driving licences in the UK. They know all about who ownes which car, is it licenced, and insured, and has the driver passed the driving test. They are probably watching me as I speak.

To Hack into a computer does not mean that you hit it very hard with a sword or spear, with the intention of opening the container called a computer. It means to look secretivly at the content of data that is supposed to be very secure.


Rob Lives in Polegate and is restoring the Godon for Jean Hammond. He drives a Peugeot  but would like to own a BMW.

I do hope that helps you with our english.

Dear Chris,

I know that my english is not the best maybe beacause I´m german and do not speak every day. Nevertheless many thanks for the private lesson but I did understand the conversation very good. I only found your humorous assumption that Rob had hacked into the DVLA database a bit funny. Thats all.

By the way in Germany one can use the verb to hack too. I didn´t think that to hack in a computer is that one “hit it very hard with a sword or spear”  ;)

I think thats enough of that stuff wich is absolutely uninteresting for all the 217 other forum members. Let´s discuss about microcars and not about if I had understand the texts.

Best regards

Tobias
