Vehicle Valuation
Market valuation combining real trade data with advanced analysis. Private sale, dealer, and part-exchange price ranges. Available as a £2.99 add-on.
How Our Valuation Works
Our two-pass valuation system combines real UK market data with advanced vehicle-specific analysis to produce price ranges tailored to the specific vehicle.
Independent Estimate
Our system analyses the vehicle's full history - MOT advisories, mileage patterns, write-off status, and keeper count - to produce an independent estimate before seeing any market data.
Market Data Lookup
We pull real UK trade valuations for the vehicle's exact make, model, age, and mileage - including private sale, dealer, and part-exchange benchmarks.
Reconciled Valuation
The system reconciles its initial estimate with the market data, applying adjustments for the vehicle's specific condition indicators, and outputs final price ranges with a confidence rating.
Frequently asked
How long does a report take?
Reports are generated instantly after payment. Most arrive in your inbox within a few seconds, and you can also download the PDF directly from the success page.
What happens if my report fails to generate?
If anything goes wrong, the report is marked as failed and you receive an automatic full refund to your original payment method. No support ticket required.
Can I check a non-UK vehicle?
No. Safe Car Check covers vehicles registered with the DVLA. If you're buying a car that was registered abroad before coming to the UK, the official UK data won't yet hold its full history.
