For peace of mind when buying a used car, motorbike or other vehicle, we recommend you buy the Vehicle History Report.
Powered by RAC, this report will tell you if the vehicle:
| Is reported as stolen | |
| Is an insurance write-off | |
| Has any outstanding finance | |
| Has any mileage inconsistencies recorded on NMR* |
All Vehicle History Reports come with a guarantee**, protecting you for up to £10,000 for any financial losses arising from inaccurate or incomplete information provided in the report.
Vehicle Health Check ***
Book a RAC engineer to physically check the car you're interested in and check
out the following:
| Is the seller the registered keeper of the car? | |
| Does the V5C correspond to the vehicle? | |
| Has the vehicle got any obvious signs of damage? |
Road test
In addition to the Health Check, you can also buy a Road Test. The RAC engineer will test drive the car and report back on any obvious mechanical problems observed during the road test.
*National Mileage Register does not include mileage posted by the seller in eBay Motors listing.
** Subject to terms and conditions.
***Dependant on location. Only available on passenger cars.
