Finding value in a vehicle

Looking for a vehicle which is worth its money is not an easy task. Sometimes a vehicle can be listed saying it is amazingly good but is it really?This was why VehicleScore was created. We designed our free car check tool to help users like yourself with your vehicle buying decisions. We can scan a vehicle's past and see if it is really up to the task of being a reliable for the foreseeable future.Our car check will help you find that diamond in the rough, while helping you to avoid costly mistakes by buying the wrong vehicle. Let us guide you in making buying a car easy.

Avoiding scams

We are facing record numbers of reports of people being scammed when buying a vehicle. Vehicles can easily be picked up from a salvage yard, fixed up, and resold without there being a trace of data which reveals the full history of the vehicle.Checking with VehicleScore first can save you from this. With our full hidden history reports, we scan if that vehicle has been spotted in a salvage yard and can reveal the truth behind the vehicles history.Don't fall for a trap, be sure to check a vehicle first before buying it. Let VehicleScore put in the leg work and check a vehicle's past before you consider spending your hard-earned cash on buying it.

Negotiating power

With our ability to reveal the truth about a vehicle's past, we can help you use this to your advantage, by leveraging the hidden truth behind the vehicles past. Vehicle's which are found to be a category vehicle will always sell under market value. Checking if the car is classed as a category vehicle, has hidden finance or maybe has even been scrapped can help you negotiate a better price for that vehicle (if you still wish to go ahead with the purchase).The handy thing about us scoring vehicles, is that we can show you averages. This gives you the power to compare apples with apples easily. If the vehicle you're looking at has a lower score than average, then you can use this to barter for a better price.

What will the hidden history report actually check?

Salvage Yard Check

−

Even HPI do not show this data! Sometimes a vehicle can be in a accident, and the owner choses not to speak to the insurance about it. This can leave the vehicle to become a unrecorded write-off. This check will scan salvage yards, and will highlight if this vehicle has ever been spotted in a salvage yard.

Stolen Check

With our data being extremely accurate, we can check if the vehicle in question has been registered as stolen. If you buy a vehicle that has been stolen, you are liable, and may result in a financial loss due to the police recovering the vehicle.

Import

We check if the vehicle has been imported from outside of the UK

Export

We check if the vehicle has been exported to outside of the UK

High Risk Check

There are multiple reasons for a high risk marker to be attached to a vehicle. this can be to show the vehicle has been used as a daily rental, a demonstrator not on finance.

50% Off Code

Looking to buy more than 1 check? Get a 50% off code you can reuse as much as you like.

Ex - Taxi Check

Check if the vehicle has been used as a taxi before.

VIN Check

We can reveal the last 5 digitals of the vin, and can also confirm the full vin upon request

Outstanding Finance

−

This check will make sure this vehicle has no outstanding finance. With the increase rate of people using finance and credit to purchase vehicles, sometimes these vehicles can be sold on without the finance being settled. If you purchase a car with finance on it, you will then be liable for the finance outstanding. So don't chance it!

10,000 Data Insurance

In the event the data you have been provided is wrong, and you are at a financial loss, this check can cover the gap, up to £10,000. Please check terms and conditions for more on this.

Scrapped Check

We will check if this vehicle has ever been recorded as scrapped through checking if there is a certificate of destruction

Insurance Category

Vehicles that have been involved in accidents are recorded as a category vehicle. This reduces the value of the vehicle significantly. This check will make sure the vehicle has never been involved in a insurance claim.

Colour Changes

We will check if the vehicle has ever had the colour changed before.

Plate Changes

We will check all previous plate changes

Previous Owners

We will get a accurate previous owner count
