Common Vehicle Check Questions
Using a vehicle detail checker helps you avoid risks before buying a used car. Here's what some of the key results mean.
What Does 'Outstanding Finance' Mean on a Car?
If a car still has finance, the lender owns it. Buying a car with outstanding finance could mean losing the vehicle. Our full vehicle check shows you this risk.


Can I Check If a Car Was Stolen?
Yes, a vehicle check will flag if the car was reported stolen. Never buy a used vehicle without checking its history first.
What Is a Mileage Discrepancy?
Mileage fraud happens when sellers roll back the odometer. Our full car check compares mileage from MOTs to reveal if anything looks suspicious.
