It's a good start: MOT history, mileage, tax and recalls, straight from DVSA and DVLA. But it can't show finance, write-offs or theft, and those are the problems that can mean the car isn't the seller's to sell, or has been badly damaged.

Outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, salvage auctions, theft, taxi or private hire use, and keepers, plate and colour changes, plus the MOT and mileage history, your AUTO373 score and 85+ data points. It opens as soon as you've paid, we email you a private link, and the report itself never expires.

You get a full report on another car for free. It's a launch offer: an extra from us, on top of your legal rights, because we're confident in our reports. Within 7 days of buying, or of running a report from a pack, use “Not helpful?” at the bottom of your report, no arguments. We just ask for a sentence on why, so we can make reports better. It's one free report per customer, checked by email and card. If we can't complete a report you get a full refund, and your legal rights if a report is ever faulty always apply.

Some very cheap checks leave out the finance check, or only show MOT records you can see for free. Every AUTO373 full report includes finance, write-off and theft, the checks buyers most need.

Yes. Most dealers are honest, but a check a seller shows you could be months old, a cheap one without finance, or a screenshot that's easy to edit, and "history checked" in an advert isn't proof. Your own report is independent and dated the day you run it. It also lists what to check at the viewing, like the VIN and logbook date, so you know the report and the paperwork match the car in front of you. Dealer stock finance is normal: just get the dealer to confirm in writing that it'll be paid off when you buy.

Good news: no finance, write-off or theft has been reported against the car. A clean result is a result, not missing data. It's different if we can't complete your report, for example if no record of the car is held or a check doesn't return a result: then you get a full refund, or the report run again once it's fixed.

Yes. Your report covers the car's history: finance, write-offs, salvage auctions, theft, taxi use, keepers and plate changes, and every MOT. Seeing the car tells you how it drives today. Every report lists what to check at the viewing, like the VIN and logbook date, so you know the history belongs to the car in front of you. On a costly car, a mechanic's inspection is worth adding for its mechanical condition.
