I just did my MR2. Came up all clear, but the car has had a plate change.

Really good and waaaaaaay cheaper than HPi etc.

I did my S1 using this check, seemed a detailed enough report (and clean). Can't argue for less than £4.

I used mycarcheck.com when I bought both my RS's and they were spot on!

Only paid £9.99 for both of them anyway!

I did a proper HPI when I got the M3, told me pretty much everything including how many times the plate had been changed, when finance was done on it, condition of the car, etc. This one is very basic and more importantly it tells you zero about outstanding finance.

read the small print on it.

disclaims everything as being info from 3rd parties so they are not liable if the info is wrong.


i used to use them until something amiss came to light-they just quoted their disclaimer

presume its still the same
