Oh, and......
You can also apply online (for a small charge) for a copy of the PRA register data related to any vehicle by inputting the number plate.
My translation of this service below...
The Automobile Club of Italy manages the Public Registry Automotive (PRA), which contains inscriptions, transcriptions and annotations relating to motor vehicles, motorcycles and trailers as "movable property register" under the rules laid down by the Civil Code.
As the PRA is a public list, anyone interested can apply for and obtain the data and information relating to any vehicle registered according to the number plate.
Today you can get this information on line, making the payment by credit card.
So you shouldn't get any nasty surprises about ownership etc of any car you are thinking of buying.
