We source our data from trusted and official UK sources, including the DVLA, the Police National Computer, and finance companies. This ensures that the data is up to date and highly accurate.

Outstanding finance means that the car you are considering is still under a finance agreement, and legally it still belongs to the finance company. If you buy a car with outstanding finance, it could be repossessed, leaving you out of pocket.

Yes, our vehicle history checks cross-reference data with the Police National Computer to ensure the vehicle hasn’t been reported stolen. This protects you from buying a stolen car, which could be confiscated by the police.

Our reports verify the mileage by cross-checking MOT history and other official records. If any discrepancies are found, they will be highlighted, helping you identify potential odometer tampered clocked cars (clocking).

A car is considered a write-off when an insurance company deems it too damaged to be economically repaired. Write-off categories range from A and B (should be scrapped) to D/N/S (can be repaired but with varying degrees of damage). Our checks reveal whether the vehicle has ever been written off.

The MOT history section includes details such as previous MOT test dates, recorded mileage, and any reasons for failures. This helps you gauge how well the car has been maintained over the years.

If a car has been declared scrapped, it should no longer be on the road. Our vehicle history checks reveal if the vehicle has been officially scrapped, so you can avoid buying a car that’s unsafe or illegal to drive. Cat A and Cat B cars are not suitable for sale and are not roadworthy.

It depends on the write-off category. Category A and B write-offs should not be returned to the road, while Category N (non-structural) and S (structural) vehicles can sometimes be safely repaired. Always ensure a vehicle’s repairs meet legal standards before purchase.

When reviewing the MOT history, look for consistent mileage, regular servicing, and any patterns of recurring failures or advisories. This can help you gauge the car’s condition and maintenance record.

Category N write-offs involve non-structural damage, such as electrical or cosmetic issues, while Category S involves structural damage. Both can be repaired and returned to the road, but Category S vehicles may require more extensive repairs.
