Car detail check uses available UK vehicle and MOT information to create clear vehicle reports from a registration number.
DVLA Vehicle Information
The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) holds vehicle registration records and provides certain vehicle data to authorised organisations.
Available vehicle information can include:
Make and model
Registration and first registration date
Engine size
Fuel type
Colour
CO₂ emissions
Tax information
SORN status
V5C-related information
Other vehicle specifications
The exact information available can vary between vehicles.
MOT Information
MOT information comes from available MOT records maintained through the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA).
Available MOT records can include:
MOT test dates
Pass or fail results
Recorded mileage
MOT expiry information
Failure reasons
Advisories
DVSA provides MOT history data to authorised third-party organisations through its MOT data services.
Vehicle Mileage
Mileage information can come from recorded vehicle and MOT records where available.
MOT records include the mileage recorded at the time of each test. Comparing these readings over time can help show how the recorded mileage has changed.
Data Availability and Updates
Vehicle records can change when new information is added or existing information is updated.
Your report reflects the information available when you run the check.
Some information may not be available for every vehicle.
Our Data Approach
Cardetailcheck.co.uk brings available vehicle and MOT information together in one clear report. We organise the information to make it easier to review, but we do not claim that a report contains every record ever associated with a vehicle.
We are an independent vehicle information platform and is not a government website or official DVLA or DVSA service.
