What you get
Built around how UK fleets actually work
DVLA vehicle data
Make, model, fuel, year, colour, engine, current tax, current MOT, CO2 — live from the DVLA on every report.
Full MOT history
Every test result with mileage, advisories, failures. Spot mileage discrepancies and recurring issues before they bite.
Standalone lookups — free and unlimited
Run a check without producing a full inspection. Useful for auction lot vetting and pre-purchase desk checks. Never consumes a credit on any account.
Live, never cached
Every lookup hits the DVLA and underlying APIs in real time. Stale checks are useless checks.
Driver-side is separate
Need to verify the person taking the vehicle, not just the vehicle itself? DVLA share-code driver licence checks live on their own feature page — see Driver licence checks in the Related panel below.
A trade buyer spots a mileage discrepancy before bidding £8,000 at auction
The buyer's phone shows the vehReports dashboard at the auction. He types the VRM into a standalone lookup before placing the bid. The full MOT history shows the odometer reading dropping between two tests — a clear mileage discrepancy. He passes. The vehicle goes for £8,200 to a less-careful buyer who discovers the clocking a week later. Free standalone lookup, £8,000+ saved.
FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Make, model, colour, fuel type, engine size, year of manufacture, current tax status (taxed/SORN/untaxed), current MOT status, MOT expiry date, CO2 emissions, vehicle category and date of first registration.
Yes — full MOT test history including pass/fail outcomes, advisories, failures and odometer readings at each test. Useful for spotting mileage discrepancies and patterns of recurring failures.
Live on every report. Each lookup hits the underlying APIs in real time. We don't serve cached data because UK vehicle data changes daily and stale checks lose their value.
Yes — and it's free. The standalone DVLA + MOT lookup runs the same merged payload as the inspection, but it doesn't produce a full inspection record and doesn't consume a credit. Useful for trade buyers checking auction lots or fleet managers running pre-purchase desk checks.
When the DVLA + MOT data lands inside an inspection report, it's covered by that report's 1 credit. When run standalone (no inspection produced), the lookup is free and unlimited on every account, paid or free-tier. Driver-licence share-code checks are also free.
