I had the same good fortune to contact the previous owner of mine even though I bought it in 2007 from a car dealer.
The previous owners registration card was under the seat and I was able to look him up on the white pages online and gave him a call.
Turns out he was also the original owner and had the car 3 years and lived only 50 miles away.
He had 2 children while he owned the car and was in need of a family friendly vehicle.
He traded it for a mini van and it broke his heart to let it go
He said the only thing it needed was the sticky key ignition fix and that was done at the dealer under warranty in 2005.
He had only put 17000 miles on it and had purchased it new in 2004.
I said someday I might drive to his house and let him take it for a ride for old time sake.
To this day almost 7 years later I never have gone to his house but I plan to go there this summer.
I just hope he still lives at the address he was at when we spoke years ago
