Enter a UK registration number (number plate) and we pull the car's records from sources including the DVLA, insurance databases, MOT records and finance companies. CarhealthAI then reads that data and explains what it means: the risks, the red flags and what to check before you buy.
CarhealthAI is the part of your report that reads the raw records for you. It points out red flags, summarises the car's overall condition, highlights maintenance to budget for, and gives plain recommendations so you know what to ask the seller.
Your report is usually ready in under a minute after payment. It appears on screen as soon as it's ready, and we email you a copy to keep.
Yes. We use industry-standard encryption to protect your searches and personal information. Your searches are confidential, and we do not share your personal data or search history with third parties. All payment processing is handled securely through Stripe, and we never store your payment details.
Yes, for UK-registered cars you only need the registration number. You don't need the VIN or anything else. We check the registration against DVLA records before you pay, and the report includes all the data held for that registration.
Red flags such as outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, mileage discrepancies or failed MOTs are highlighted in your report with an explanation and suggested next steps. Use them to negotiate a better price, ask for repairs, or walk away.
