The car I intended to buy didn't have 42,000 km – six months earlier it already had 155,000. Best money I ever spent.

Before you pay for the vehicle, answer these six questions
A history report costs far less than getting even one of them wrong.
Is the mileage real?
Our Mileage check finds vehicles that have driven far more than the odometer shows – by over 51,000 mi, on average. You pay for a younger vehicle, and drive away in an older one.
What did it look like before?
Where past pictures of the vehicle exist, we find them. Anything that looks different than what you see in the listing is worth a closer look.
Could you lose it later?
We check the VIN against stolen vehicle records. If it’s been reported stolen, it can be taken back, whatever you paid for it.
What happened before it was listed?
The Timeline feature puts available records in date order, so you can see what happened shortly before the vehicle was put up for sale.
Is the price fair?
Our market price data shows what similar vehicles sell for. Too high and you're overpaying. Unexpectedly low, and it’s worth asking why.
Our data comes from 1000+ sources
Our vehicle history reports are based on data from 1000+ international databases belonging to national vehicle registries, insurance companies, law enforcement agencies, official garages, and other institutions. Once we've gathered all the relevant information about a vehicle, we organize it and present it in an easy-to-understand format.
Each data request to all of our sources carries a cost, which is why our reports aren't provided for free. If you believe the generated report contains inaccuracies or mistakes or if you are unsatisfied with it, please contact our .
