Buying a used car?

Don’t just trust the advert.

A Car Owl vehicle history check helps you spot key risks before you pay, including outstanding finance, write-off history, stolen markers, mileage issues and more.

Know the car before you buy it.

Would you buy a used car without running the plate? 👀

Outstanding finance, write-offs, stolen status, mileage, MOT history, previous keepers and more, all from one plate.

Would you still buy it? 👀

The advert says one careful owner and full history. The record shows 4 registered keepers and a Category S write-off. Neither is automatically a dealbreaker, but both are worth asking about before you hand over any money.

Read the advert. Then read the record. Before you buy, do a Car Owl check at carowl.co.uk

Illustrative example.

Every used car has a history. The question is whether you’ve seen it.

Before you hand over any money, check the mileage at every MOT, any outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, stolen status, whether it’s been recorded as scrapped, previous keepers and the full MOT history.

Look closer. Then buy.

Buying a used car?

A stolen car doesn’t have to look stolen.

Photos show you the bodywork and the interior. They can’t show you whether the car is currently recorded as stolen.
Car Owl uses Police National Computer data to check whether a vehicle is currently recorded as stolen. So look at the car, and check its records, before you pay.

Would you spot this before buying? 👀

Advertised: 42,000 miles.
2023: 51,200. 2024: 39,800

A reading that goes backwards is a discrepancy, not a verdict. It could be a recording error, but it needs explaining.

Before paying a deposit:
1️⃣ Ask the seller to explain
2️⃣ Compare MOT and service records
3️⃣ Resolve the mismatch

Read the history, not just the advert. Vehicle history checks at carowl.co.uk 🦉

Illustrative example.

Same car. Same mileage. Would you ask the same price? 👀

The mileage tells you how far it’s travelled. Service records help show how it’s been maintained.

Before buying, check:
🔧 When it was serviced
📋 What work was done
📅 How that compares with the manufacturer’s service schedule

Missing paperwork? Ask for evidence. It doesn’t automatically mean servicing was skipped.

Check its history. Inspect its condition.

If an advisory keeps repeating, read it as a decision the last keeper made

Read the MOT history before you make an offer.
