About

The providers of this web site come from a variety of backgrounds; motor trader, vehicle information suppliers, insurance investigation, title dispute handlers and police.

The idea of the site is simple - provide people who have access to the internet the opportunity to make an enquiry of a vehicle. The more people undertaking enquiries of vehicles, the more stolen vehicles that will be found and the sooner they will be recovered before being damaged (vandalised or set alight) creating a hazard. This will result in less cost, distress and inconvenience to all concerned.

Our police constabularies are understaffed and overworked. When a vehicle theft is reported to them often all they can do is place the car on the Police National Computer (PNC) as 'stolen' then sit back and wait for it to be checked and located. Now you can help.

There are a number of other uses of this site and the data, as described on our 'why provide a FREE check' page, but now criminals will need to do more than just hide their stolen vehicles from the police - is it unrealistic or too optimistic to think your searches may add to the car-crime deterrent? No.

If you wish to buy a second hand car, can the police tell you whether it is stolen or not before you buy it? The answer, displayed on the Police National Legal Database is as follows:

No, the police cannot tell you whether a second hand car is or has been stolen or not. There are organisations that do credit checks on vehicles which will also tell you if there is any outstanding credit on the vehicle. There will be a fee for this service but it is always better to check out any second hand car that you are thinking of buying.

We cannot however, recommend any specific companies or organisations. A search of the internet will reveal a list of the organisations who offer this service, the price may vary according to each company.

Now you can undertake an enquiry from the comfort of your home, for FREE without disturbing the police.
