Common questions
What is Autovit?
Autovit (autovit.ro, autovit.pl via OTOMOTO) is OLX Group's leading car-listings marketplace in Romania and Poland. It's a platform for buying and selling used cars via private and dealer listings — not a vehicle history or verification service. Sellers self-report all vehicle data.
Is Autovit safe to buy from?
Autovit is a legitimate platform, but like all classifieds marketplaces it relies on seller honesty. Common risks include rolled-back odometers, undisclosed accident damage, and misrepresented service history. Running an independent VIN check on Automano before visiting a seller is the standard precaution.
How do I verify an Autovit listing for free?
Copy the VIN from the Autovit listing, paste it into Automano's free decoder, then check the official RAR portal (rarom.ro) for Romanian cars or historiapojazdu.gov.pl for Polish cars. These three steps cost nothing and cover the most common fraud vectors.
Does Automano work for Romanian and Polish cars?
Yes. Automano integrates official RAR data for vehicles registered in Romania and CEPiK data for vehicles registered in Poland. These are the two primary markets where Autovit operates, and they are Automano's strongest data sources for Eastern European vehicles.
What is the difference between RAR (Romania) and CEPiK (Poland)?
RAR (Registrul Auto Român) is the Romanian vehicle authority that maintains ITP (technical inspection) records, including odometer readings at each inspection. CEPiK (Centralna Ewidencja Pojazdów i Kierowców) is Poland's central vehicle and driver register, covering owner history, mileage from TÜV-equivalent inspections and insurance records. Both are official government databases. Automano queries both in a single report.

What is Autovit — and why you need a VIN check before buying
Autovit (autovit.ro, autovit.pl via OTOMOTO) is OLX Group's car-listings marketplace, dominant in Romania and Poland. It's a classified-ads platform — not a vehicle history checker. Sellers self-report mileage, damage and service history.
That's where Automano comes in. Before driving 200 km to see a car, paste the VIN: Automano cross-references official RAR (Romania), CEPiK (Poland) and NHTSA databases to flag mileage rollbacks, undisclosed accidents and open recalls — in one report, no signup needed.

How to verify an Autovit listing for free — step by step
Before you contact the seller or book a viewing, run these four checks. All free.
1. Copy the VIN from the listing
Every Autovit listing must display the VIN (number de șasiu / numer VIN). Find it in the listing details or ask the seller. A 17-character alphanumeric code is what you need.
2. Decode the VIN on Automano
Paste the VIN into Automano's free decoder. You instantly see make, model, engine, country of manufacture and factory options — verifying the listing's basic claims at no cost.
3. Check the official registry
For Romanian cars: check rarom.ro for ITP (technical inspection) history. For Polish cars: check historiapojazdu.gov.pl (CEPiK). Both are free government portals that reveal mileage at each inspection.
4. Get the full Automano report before you go
For €7.90, Automano's full report combines RAR, CEPiK and NHTSA data — mileage history, accident flags, ownership count, open recalls and more. Cheaper than a single train ticket, and it can save you from a €10,000 mistake.
