The most detailed car check I've ever used. Found out the car had outstanding finance - the seller conveniently forgot to mention that!

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We've got answers.

How quickly will I receive my report?

Instantly. Your report is generated in seconds and available immediately after purchase. You'll also receive an email with a direct link to access your report anytime.

Do reports expire?

No. Once purchased, your report is yours forever. You can access it anytime using the link we email you.

What data sources do you use?

We pull data directly from official government sources including DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) and DVSA (Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), plus trusted industry databases for valuations and vehicle specifications.

Can I check any UK vehicle?

Yes, you can check any vehicle registered with the DVLA, including cars, vans, motorcycles, and motorhomes. Our database covers vehicles from all UK regions.

What's the difference between Pro and Premium?

Pro (£9.99) includes full MOT history, market valuation, 70+ vehicle specifications, AI-powered insights, and keeper history. Premium (£19.99) adds critical security checks: outstanding finance, stolen vehicle status, insurance write-off history, mileage verification, and scrapped status.

Can I upgrade from Pro to Premium later?

Yes! If you purchase a Pro report and later want the additional security checks, you can upgrade to Premium for just £10 (the price difference). Your existing data is preserved and enhanced with the Premium checks.

What's included in the free check?

The free check shows you basic DVLA data: current MOT status, tax status, vehicle make, colour, fuel type, CO2 emissions, and registration date. It's a quick way to verify basic details before committing to a full report.

How accurate is the MOT history?

MOT history comes directly from DVSA's official database - the same data used by MOT testing stations. It includes every test result, advisory notices, and failure reasons.

How does the AI-powered insights feature work?

Our AI analyzes all the data in your report and provides personalized commentary on what it means for you as a buyer. It highlights potential concerns, explains technical details in plain English, and gives you an overall assessment of the vehicle.

What does the market valuation include?

We provide 5 valuation bands: trade-in value, private sale value, dealer retail, and forecourt prices. This helps you understand the true market value whether you're buying or selling.

What is a finance check?

A finance check reveals if there's outstanding finance on the vehicle. If someone sells a car with unpaid finance, the finance company can legally repossess it from you - even if you paid in good faith. This check protects you from inheriting someone else's debt.

What does the stolen vehicle check cover?

We check the Police National Computer for any stolen markers on the vehicle. If a car is flagged as stolen, it can be seized by police regardless of how you acquired it.

What are insurance write-off categories?

Write-offs are vehicles that insurers deemed uneconomical to repair after an accident. Categories include: Cat A (scrap only), Cat B (body shell must be crushed), Cat S (structural damage, repairable), and Cat N (non-structural damage, repairable). Even repaired write-offs can have hidden issues and reduced resale value.

How does mileage verification work?

We cross-reference mileage readings from MOT tests over time to detect inconsistencies that could indicate odometer tampering (clocking). Sudden drops in recorded mileage are flagged as potential fraud.

Why do some fields show "Unavailable"?

Some data isn't available for all vehicles. Older vehicles may lack detailed specifications, and some information depends on what manufacturers provide. We show everything that's available from our data sources.

Is my payment secure?

Yes. All payments are processed securely through PayPal. We never see or store your card details.
