Answering your questions
You can check your basic car details for free, including MOT, tax, and vehicle specs, registration etc. For deeper insights like finance, write-offs, stolen & high-risk you need our full checks starting from £4.99.
We use trusted sources like the DVLA, DVSA, police records, and Experian to gather data. Everything is updated in real time and verified for accuracy. At CarAnalytics, we make sure you get a clear and reliable view before you buy.
We pull data from trusted UK sources like the DVLA, police records, MIAFTR, finance providers, and MOT databases. All the key details are compiled into one report with over 80 verified data points. It’s everything you need to understand a vehicle’s full history, all in one place.
Discrepancies may arise from outdated records or admin errors. Always cross-check with your DVLA V5C logbook and inspect the vehicle directly. If the issue persists, contact the DVLA, seller, or insurer. For extra peace of mind, our full report is backed by a £10,000 data guarantee—so you're protected if any critical data is found to be incorrect.
A high-risk marker means the vehicle is flagged due to issues like a financial dispute over ownership. It may be under third-party interest, and someone could be actively tracking it to prevent a sale. It’s a serious warning—always investigate further and contact the relevant parties before going ahead.
