MotoMarket UK · Vehicle checks
Car & van reg & history check
From a first hatchback to a working van. Start with a free reg check, or look deeper with a full history report for £5.99.
Know the vehicle.
Not just the advert.
A clean valet cannot tell you about recorded finance, theft or an insurance write-off. Check the registration before you travel, then match the VIN and V5C when you view it. For vans, check mileage closely — commercial use adds up fast.
Before you buy: the checklistStart with the essentials
Free vehicle details, tax status and available MOT history, including test results and recorded mileage.
Look beyond the MOT
Full reports check for outstanding finance, police stolen records and recorded insurance write-offs.
Read the mileage story
Compare recorded readings over time. Full reports add mileage anomaly checks where data is available.
A few things worth knowing
Can I check a van or commercial vehicle?
Yes — enter any UK registration for a car or light commercial van. Available records vary by vehicle.
Does a free car check show stolen or finance records?
No. Those checks are part of the £5.99 full report. The free check covers vehicle details, tax status and available MOT records.
Is this an official HPI Check?
No. MotoMarket provides its own vehicle history check through its data provider. HPI is a separate brand; MotoMarket is not affiliated with it.
Does a clear report mean the vehicle is safe to buy?
A report reflects the records available at the time of the check, not a mechanical inspection or a guarantee. Check the VIN, V5C, seller’s identity and condition in person. Unreported damage may not appear.
