One vehicle report, £7
See the vehicle description before you decide. The registration lookup gives you a free vehicle-details preview. If you want the full VIN and the available vehicle information in an emailed report, the price is £7 GBP.

The free preview does not include the full VIN. Entering a registration does not mean you have ordered the paid report. You choose Request the £7 report after checking the vehicle, then enter the email for delivery and complete payment.
What is in the £7 report?
The report includes the full VIN plus vehicle details held in the available record. These can include:
- Make, model, year and colour.
- Fuel type, transmission, body style and engine information.
- First registration, doors and vehicle class.
- Estimated mileage, previous keeper count and MOT expiry where available.
Availability varies by vehicle and record. An absent field is not proof that a vehicle has no relevant history. We do not invent values to fill gaps. Estimated mileage is not a verified present-day odometer reading, and a keeper count contains no personal data.
The full VIN is the principal addition to the preview. Several vehicle-description fields may already have appeared before you paid. The report brings the VIN and available details together so you can use them alongside the car and its documents.
Choose a report for the job you need to do
For parts ordering, ask the supplier whether they need the VIN and how they will confirm compatibility. For insurance, check the form or insurer's instructions. For a purchase, use the VIN to compare the report, physical car and V5C before making a decision.
This is a VIN and vehicle-details report, not a comprehensive vehicle-history investigation. It does not establish mechanical condition, guarantee a purchase or replace independent checks. MOT expiry is not a full MOT history. Use official services and suitable professional advice for checks outside the stated scope.
You may already have the VIN
There is no charge to read a VIN that you can access on your own vehicle or its documents. Look at the VIN location guide before buying if that is convenient. The free GOV.UK/DVLA vehicle enquiry does not return the VIN, but it remains useful for its own vehicle-information checks.
Before completing payment
Check the vehicle description, the £7 price and the delivery email. Read the terms and privacy notice. If anything is unclear, ask us before ordering rather than relying on an assumption about coverage or delivery.
Refund and cancellation terms must be completed and approved before checkout is released. This draft does not promise a particular outcome for an unavailable record.
Read the field names as carefully as the price
Vehicle data is most useful when the labels are kept intact. First registration and model year are not automatically the same date. Engine information describes the record, not an inspection of the components fitted today. A transmission or body-style entry can help identify the vehicle, but it should still be compared with the car.
If a workshop or supplier is making a decision based on the report, give them the relevant information without removing those qualifications. In particular, do not turn an estimated mileage into an asserted reading or describe an unavailable field as confirmed.
When not to order yet
Wait if the preview shows the wrong vehicle, if you are uncertain about the registration or if you have not established what the receiving organisation needs. Contact us first if a discrepancy might affect the report you are considering.
You may also want a different service for a different question. A physical inspection assesses condition; the official MOT service provides the information within its own scope; a parts supplier checks the suitability of an item. The £7 price is for the report described here, not a bundle of every possible check.
Keep the order details together
Once you choose to buy, retain the order reference and the email address used. They help connect any later enquiry with the correct request. A report for one registration should not be reused for another vehicle merely because its make and model are similar.
If you need help understanding a result, explain which field is unclear. Support can investigate the service enquiry, but it cannot amend an official record through a contact message. Use the relevant official route where the underlying vehicle documents need correction.
