Free MOT & tax check
No sign-up. Enter a UK registration and see live DVLA data — MOT status, tax status, expiry dates, CO₂ and fuel type — in under three seconds.
The free check is the fastest way to verify a car exists as described. If the seller says it's a 2019 grey diesel Golf, the DVLA record will back that up — or won't. Cloned plates, wrong year and misdescribed models fall out immediately.
When you're ready to go deeper — finance status, insurance write-off history, mileage timeline, valuation — the Buyer Check and Full Buyer Protection Check unlock on the same page.
Yes. The free DVLA summary is on screen in under three seconds — no sign-up, no card details. You only pay if you decide to unlock the Buyer Check or Full Buyer Protection Check for finance, write-off and valuation data.
Make, model, colour, fuel type, year, MOT status, MOT expiry date, tax status, tax due date and CO₂ emissions — pulled directly from the DVLA Vehicle Enquiry Service.
No account is needed for the free DVLA check. You only need to sign in when you unlock a paid report so we can save it to your account and email you a PDF.
Full Buyer Protection Check from £8.90 — finance, write-off and theft included.
