The power delivery mechanisms—view the BHP, torque, max speed, EURO status, and more.
Weight and dimensions
Details about the car's door plan, gross vehicle weight, kerb weight, and dimensions—the length, height, and width of the vehicle.
MOT and tax dues
Check the vehicle tax and MOT status, as well as the renewal dates, to ensure legal compliance and roadworthiness.
Alerts
Check if the car was scrapped or junked, if it was imported from outside the EU, or if the car has any marker of high risk, plate or color changes, and more. Checks for critical events such as scrapping, importing, or recalls.
Mileage discrepancies
Check for inconsistencies in reported mileage, safeguarding against fraudulent practices like clocking.
Write-off check
Understand if the vehicle has been written as Cat A, B, C, D, N, or S category car by insurance companies or the DVLA.
Vehicle registration details
Check the car's origin, color, number of V5C certificates, and any changes in registration, which also implies owner changes.
MOT history
Find out the car's maintenance record through past MOT tests, pass or fail status, recorded mileage, advisory notes, and annotation details.
Stolen check
Verify if the vehicle has been reported as stolen in the past or not to avoid legal complications.
Outstanding finance check
Check if there is any outstanding finance record for the vehicle as this can lead to vehicle repossession.
Number plate changes
Verify how often the number plate of the car has been changed from its first sale to easily spot cloned plates.
Color changes
Check for the vehicle’s color and if the car has had its color changed in the past.
These details cannot be obtained just by looking at the car on the lot. You cannot spot mileage discrepancies and MOT records with the V5C or any other document.

Why do you need to check car information online?
There are several reasons why anyone interested in buying a car or selling one should consider getting a detailed vehicle history report. Some of these reasons are:
Protecting Your Investment
Avoiding Car Repossession
Checking the history can reveal any outstanding car finance or liens on the vehicle. This knowledge prevents the risk of repossession and the trouble that comes with it. Don’t waste time and money paying for a car with outstanding finance. Get a check now.
Checking Ownership History
Understanding the number of previous owners and any changes in plate or color helps in assessing the vehicle’s overall stability, age, and potential wear and tear. The higher the number of owners, the more likely a vehicle is to have hidden problems.
Ensuring safety
Is the car safe enough to drive? Does it meet your performance and safety criteria? When you have an idea of a vehicle’s MOT history, undisclosed write-offs, vehicle performance, and safety EURO NCAP ratings, you can easily decide if the vehicle is safe enough for usage or not. Our MOT checks are extremely detailed, giving you an idea of car maintenance and safety-related issues.
Identifying Clocked Vehicles
Verify reported mileage to guard against fraudulent practices like clocking. Checking for vehicle mileage fraud helps ensure that the odometer reading aligns with the vehicle’s actual usage, preventing potential scams.
Avoiding Written-Off Vehicles
Car history checks reveal whether the vehicle has been involved in accidents leading to write-offs. Avoiding written-off vehicles is essential to ensuring that you invest in a car with a reliable and safe history.
