Our free check gives you a snapshot of a vehicle's history – the basics like make, model, fuel type, and engine power, plus its road tax (VED) status, full MOT history, estimated real-world fuel costs, fuel economy, and performance.
Can I rely on a free check alone?
A free check covers a lot of ground, but it won't reveal everything. For example, it doesn't show if a vehicle has outstanding finance or has been classified as a write-off by an insurer. For the full picture, upgrade to a Gold check. See our prices here.
Where does the data come from?
All our data comes from official sources, including the UK Police, insurance companies, finance providers, DVLA (vehicle data), DVSA (MOT data and vehicle recalls), and VCA (fuel consumption and CO2). Read more about our data sources at Total Car Check.
