Ready for Your Real Report?A Safe Car Check report is a multi-page PDF covering vehicle identity, stolen status, outstanding finance, insurance write-off history, mileage analysis with anomaly detection, full MOT history with advisories, and comprehensive vehicle specifications - plus an advanced plain-english summary with risk rating.
What's in Your Report
Vehicle Identity
The report opens with full vehicle identification details: registration number, make, model, colour, year of manufacture, engine size, fuel type, VIN, and V5C document reference. This lets you verify the vehicle matches what the seller is describing.
Stolen Vehicle Check
A clear pass or fail result from the Police National Computer (PNC) database. If the vehicle has been reported stolen anywhere in the UK, this section will flag it immediately.
Outstanding Finance
Shows whether any finance agreements (HP, PCP or lease) are currently registered against the vehicle. If finance is found, the report displays the finance company name and agreement details.
Insurance Write-Off History
Checks the MIAFTR register for any insurance write-off markers. If the vehicle has been written off, the category (A, B, S or N) is clearly shown along with a brief explanation of what it means.
Mileage Analysis
A timeline of recorded mileage readings from MOT tests, with anomaly detection. The report flags any inconsistencies where the recorded mileage decreases between readings - a potential indicator of odometer tampering.
Full MOT History
Every MOT test result on record: pass or fail, the date of each test, mileage reading, all advisory notices and every failure reason. This gives you a detailed picture of how the vehicle has been maintained over time.
Vehicle Specifications
Comprehensive technical specifications including engine capacity, power output, CO2 emissions, fuel type, body type, number of doors, and more - useful for insurance quotes and general reference.
Frequently asked
Are the sample reports real?
Yes. The three samples are generated from real vehicle data using the same pipeline that produces every paid Safe Car Check report. The cover photos and registration plates have been replaced for privacy.
Will my report look the same?
The structure, layout and sections will be identical. The data inside will be specific to the vehicle you check, so your report will be longer if the vehicle has more MOT history or more keepers, and shorter if it's a newer car.
What's different about a paid report?
Nothing structural. The samples are full reports without redactions. The only difference is that yours covers the registration you choose, and is delivered to your inbox within seconds of payment.
