How do you find an old car you used to own?

In: Vehicle Titles [Edit categories]

Answer:

That has to be one of life's mysteries. In all the years that I have had a car and sold it, I have never seen that car again. I think they must go to another state sometimes.

But, in order to find it, one would need access to the MVD computers, which is most likely severely restricted. Rights of privacy also enter the picture here - the new owners probably do not desire to have contact with a previous owner anyway.
