Welcome, it looks like a good find 
If it has OC decals, then contact the office in Derby and ask for any information that they may have - GDPR means that they cannot provide previous owners details, but they might be able to contact a previous owner on your behalf and see whether said owners would be prepared to speak with you. The good news is that the car is SORN and known to the DVLA.
