Just sold my Maverick on eBay & the fella who's won it messaged me & asked if I could send him the v5 reference number.

I'm scratching my head as to why he'd ask for this!

Sold many cars in my life & never been asked for this!!

Anyone?

 

Need the V5 ref for a full HPI check

 

Or too check the history

 

Mot status and history also requires it.

 

That'll be my bet too

 

Fair enough.

Did think about checking past mots etc but got everything with it.

 

Yes, as others have said you can use it on the HPI check now.

 

You also need it to tax the car if you don't have the reminder, that's if it needs tax obviously

 

sounds like a savvy buyer

 

hes going to steal your identity and take over your life lol

 

Vosa mot history check
Shows all the computerised mots includng any advisories, good way to check if mileage adds up and what work has been done at mot time - nothing to worry about !
