I bought a new domain for my business and there was no trace of any old business name when researching connected to that domain. After about 6 months I received some data from an old client of theirs. It had a company name so I was able to let someone from that company know, as well the sender and I deleted the data before reading it. I guess you have to think what did you use it for, who might send data that identifies you etc. You never know who might buy it.
I remember reading an article but can’t find it now. A researcher bought tons old domains from government and local departments that had shut down or changed names, and managed to get some interesting information!
About 120 miles, which in the UK is like a weekend trip at least
