Why Would you Scrap Such a Car?  :(

No idea. I am not 100% sure as there is no longer a way where you can see the date that a Certificate of Destruction was issued but when both tax and MOT show 'not available' on a checker, that usually means a car has been scrapped. I would, in this case, safely assume that the car got involved in a crash as I would see no other viable way or reason for scrapping a 51,000 mile pristine Volvo.

Have you used a particular website for that?

Yes.
I must preface by suggesting not to use their service too much, because if they receive thousands of requests per day, they will likely shut it down, as it costs them a little to retrieve this data. This is partly why we lost Cazoo/Carvana.
It's called Check History. It is also available as a phone application, which tells you previous numberplates.

Okay cool. Yeah I most likely won't use it unless I am curious over something like this. Such a shame about Cazoo though, I did get my use out of that  :D

Cheers!
