Mechanic-style UK buying tool

Used Car Checker Pro UK

Assess the car, the paperwork, the seller and the likely repair spend before you buy. The checker converts your inspection evidence into a clear Buy, Negotiate, Inspect or Walk Away recommendation.

Pre-purchase assessment

Complete the checks in the same order a careful buyer should

Move backwards without losing answers. Missing evidence reduces confidence rather than being treated as proof that the vehicle is safe.

Before continuing

Do not rely on this score alone. Obtain a trusted history check, inspect the original V5C and VIN, review the MOT record, test drive from cold and arrange a professional inspection where risk remains.

Step 1 of 6

Vehicle basics

Record enough detail to judge age, mileage, asking price and expected wear.

Never buy on the score alone

Confirm the seller’s identity, inspect the original V5C, match every VIN location, obtain a trusted history check, review the MOT record and arrange an inspection where the potential loss is significant.
