They avoided a bad deal

Real customers, real cars, real money saved.

Bought a five-year-old A4 from a private seller. The MOT report flagged a recurring brake advisory the seller had ignored — got £200 off.

Pulled the DVLA + MOT history before buying a 2019 Focus. Two failed MOTs the dealer didn't mention — walked away, saved myself the headache.

Cheaper and faster than HPI. Free decode showed everything I needed for a quick sanity check, and the full report was £6.50 — fair price.

Is the VIN decoder really free?

Yes. The VIN decoder is 100% free, unlimited, and requires no signup. An account is only needed to purchase reports or subscribe to Premium.

Can I cancel Premium anytime?

What payment methods do you accept?

How does the refund work?

Can I get an invoice?
