Checks for car information. (MOT History, Irish Tax/NCT Expiry)

This is gold, thanks lads.
Is there any way to check the Nct history on a car? Eg dates & mileage at test dates?

Nope. Only useful thing is, You'll get the Mileages for the last 3 years on the cert.

I'v tried to get mileage records by ringing them and definately won't do it over the phone, They want it put it writing and they may release info.

Thanks, it's the old ones I really want from before I bought the car, mainly for the e30. I might try the written approach with them so.

Is there a way to confirm mileage of a car that has had only 1 previous mot.

For example
My sister is looking to buy a car from kind of back yard dealer here in Ireland. It's 2012 with 44k miles. Had a previous mot in 2015 and the mileage checks out just fine. But how can I confirm that it wasn't clocked prior to its first mot?
