FAQ — Frequently asked questions
Why isn’t a VIN report enough?
A VIN report shows the history, not the current condition. It won’t reveal paint deviations, fresh damage, corrosion/moisture, noise under load or faults not yet stored. Without an on-site inspection, OBD×2 and a test drive, you keep substantial risk.
What does an on-site inspection add beyond a VIN report?
Paint gauge (hits/repaints), OBD before/after drive (live data, hidden faults, tampering signs), test drive (gearbox, suspension, brakes), visual check (leaks, cooling, tyres/pads) and document review (VIN match, service records).
