The problem

A wrong VIN, a different year or a model that doesn't match are found out late: after the listing or, worse, at the sale.

What the vehicle check does

  • Make and model compared with the record
  • Year of first registration
  • VIN: format, country of manufacture and match with the plate
  • Third-party insurance: insurer and expiry date
  • Every result marked ✓, ! or ✕
  • Source and caveat in every report

Pay per use on all plans: 2 credits per check (Italian number plates).

OK needs checking does not match

Source: technical data and third-party insurance linked to the Italian number plate, via an authorised provider. “No issues found” does not guarantee the absence of accidents or clocked mileage.

How it works

Three steps.

Step 1

Open the vehicle record

Press “Check plate and insurance”: it takes 2 credits.

Step 2

Read the results

Make and model, year, VIN and third-party insurance, each marked ✓, ! or ✕.

Step 3

Decide

The report always shows the source and reminds you that “no issues found” does not guarantee there have been no accidents.
