This person is continually parking on private land even though notices are in place stating that the marked spaces are reserved for particular people. He has been asked politely not to do so, and messages have been left under his windscreen wipers, all to no avail. Is there any legal way of finding out who the registration number belongs to, other than involving the police.

No, DVLA will only tell you if you have a real need, such as a hit-and-run in a car park where the police aren't interested. You'd have to complete a form justifying your need and pay a fee.

Who owns the land in question? The landowner needs to sort this out. Often these spaces are owned by the Council and they're often pretty quick at clamping etc.!

You need to go through the police. There is no way to go online and trace down the owner of a car-and thats a good thing. It would not be safe if people could do that.
Imagine some 16 year old girl driving around for the first time and some nutcase stalking her-would it be a good thing for him to be able to track her down from her plates?
Seriously-just call the cops and let them handle it. Next time he parks there, call the cops, tell them you want this car towed off. They will do it.

I not sure this still work, but, you can write down the License number and go to the local Revenue Department and pay $10 to learn. They did do this years ago as this how a Car Dealer know who a person was when they Browse their cars and leave before they get up from their coffee and donuts. Then they could mail them. But, that may have changed now.

The police will not tell you they are not allowed to if you pay a fee you apply at DVLC to find out.

Nope. But if you are in England isn't clamping allowed?

Give the car a nice scrape with your keys. That will sort him.
