Common questions

  • What is Automano and how does it complement leboncoin?

    leboncoin je platforma za oglase: povezuje kupce i prodavce, ali ne proverava vozila. Automano je usluga za proveru VIN-a koja popunjava tu prazninu. Pre nego što kontaktirate prodavca na leboncoin-u, unesite VIN u Automano: odmah dobijate besplatan dekoder, a za 7,90€ kompletan izveštaj sa potvrđenom identifikacijom, zvaničnim francuskim opozivima (Rappel Conso) i podacima NHTSA — plus izveštaj HistoVec koji treba zatražiti od prodavca.

  • Is leboncoin reliable for buying a car?

    leboncoin is legitimate and very popular, but does not validate seller information. A prior VIN check on Automano drastically reduces the risk of scams.

  • How to verify a leboncoin listing before contacting the seller?

    Četiri koraka: (1) Dobijte VIN iz oglasa ili pitajte prodavca. (2) Besplatno ga dekodirajte na Automano da potvrdite marku, model i godinu. (3) Proverite na HistoVec (zvanična besplatna usluga) incidente i istoriju tehničkih pregleda. (4) Naručite izveštaj Automano za 7,90€ za potvrđenu identifikaciju, zvanične opozive (Rappel Conso + NHTSA) i procenu cene.

leboncoin and VIN verification: what you need to know

leboncoin is France's #1 classifieds platform with millions of used-car listings. It's the reference for buying a used car in France — but the platform offers no VIN verification or history check.

Automano is the complementary step: before contacting the seller, paste the VIN into our decoder. In seconds you know if the mileage has been tampered with, if the car was in an accident, or if it has open recalls.

How to verify a leboncoin listing for free

Four steps to check a leboncoin car before contacting the seller:

1. Get the VIN from the listing

On leboncoin, the VIN sometimes appears in the description or registration certificate photos. Ask the seller if missing.

2. Decode the VIN on Automano (free)

Paste the VIN into our free decoder. In seconds: make, model, year, engine, country of origin. No signup.

3. Check on HistoVec (free)

HistoVec is the official French Ministry of Interior service. With VIN or plate, reveals incidents, MOT history and liens — free.

4. Get the full Automano report (€7.90)

PDF report with KBA, HistoVec, ANTS data and NHTSA recalls. Identifies tampered odometers and undeclared accidents.

Why verify with Automano before calling the leboncoin seller?

Four reasons never to contact a leboncoin seller without a prior VIN check.

Tampered odometers

Do 30% privatnih prodaja polovnih vozila u Francuskoj uključuje manipulisanu kilometražu. Automano potvrđuje identifikaciju vozila i zvanične opozive — i uvek zatražite od prodavca izveštaj HistoVec, koji sadrži zvanične francuske podatke o kilometraži.

Undeclared accidents

A leboncoin car may have been repaired after an accident without it appearing in the listing. Ask the seller for the HistoVec report (it carries declared incidents) and pair it with the Automano report's confirmed identification and official recalls.

Stolen vehicles or outstanding liens

Automano checks ANTS data to detect vehicles with outstanding transfer bans or contested ownership.

Open manufacturer recalls

Our report lists open NHTSA and European recalls on the model.

Najčešće prevare sa automobilima na leboncoin-u: (1) Manipulisana kilometraža — proverite zapise o kilometraži u HistoVec. (2) Skriven udes — zatražite izveštaj HistoVec i nezavisan pregled; izveštaj Automano potvrđuje identifikaciju i zvanične opozive. (3) Automobil sa aktivnom zalogom ili zabranom prodaje — proverljivo preko HistoVec i ANTS. (4) Prevare sa prodajom na daljinu — nikada ne šaljite kaparu bez viđenja vozila i provere VIN-a. (5) Lažni privatni prodavci — fizičko lice po zakonu ne sme da proda više od nekoliko automobila godišnje.
