Never knew of this resource and MAN, it could include important facts about the colour and power of the original car, Thanks Mark !!
This report alone could debunk any claim to a COPO, unfortunately for the owner, if it does. On the other hand, if the vin plate has been swapped as well, it will only indicate the car the plate came from.

I'm PMing a link to the owner so he can follow up on this. Could be the best tip so far.

This package contains:
  • the vehicle details (including the year, make, model, colour, body type, cylinders and power)
  • a vehicle registration history in Ontario (including all present and previous owners, their city of residence and odometer reading)
