CarInspectly Success Stories
See how our detailed reports have protected thousands of UK car buyers from costly mistakes.
"Seller claimed the car was in daily use, but CarInspectly showed it was on SORN for over a year. Saved me from buying a car with seized brakes and engine issues."
"Almost bought a 'clean' Ford Fiesta until the report showed an active Police Marker. Turns out it was stolen-recovered property. Dodged a massive legal bullet!"
"The V5C Issue Date check was crucial. Found out the seller had only owned the car for 4 days—total car flipper scam. Negotiated a much better deal elsewhere."
"Checked the MOT history. The report flagged 4 consecutive failures for suspension and steering. Seller tried to hide the dangerous 'advisory' notes."
"Discovered the vehicle had 6 previous owners in just 3 years. The report highlighted the rapid ownership changes that the dealer tried to ignore."
"Verified the Tax status and found it was unpaid for 4 months. The report is clear, professional, and helped me avoid back-tax penalties."
"Checking a £50k Range Rover. The Ultimate report found a grey import status with no UK warranty. Saved me from a potential financial disaster."
"The Full Maintenance Audit predicted a timing belt and clutch failure based on service gaps. Saved me from a breakdown on my first week."

"The MIAFTR Total Loss check was incredibly detailed. Showed the exact insurance claim amount from 2019 that other sites missed."
"Buying an investment Porsche. The Enhanced Salvage History found photos of the car at auction after a flood. Pure gold information."

Unlike "instant" sites that use cached (old) data, we pull real-time records to ensure you don't miss a finance marker or theft report filed just minutes ago.
While our Basic and Premium reports offer great value, we highly recommend the Ultimate Report (£69) for any vehicle purchase over £5,000.

We offer a 5-day money-back guarantee. If our report contains any technical discrepancy or if an official record (like a Write-off) was missed at the time of the search, we will issue a full refund immediately.
