Car Vertical
May 7, 2022

When compared to Total Car Check it's not as good. Doesn't give a clear number of previous keepers. Not as well laid out just over all not as good as Total Car Check which I had been previously using not to mention the price difference with Car Vertical being much more expensive with the price being £21.58 for 2 reports.

I didn't get any new information, at all. Copy and paste VIN into Google will make you better results.

Max. Spokojnosť s overením, dané vozidlo malo o ******* viac, ako bolo v inzercii, ale vyšla mi trochu iná cena, aká bola ponúknutá

The only way to feel secure when building a Harley from the ground up is with the security knowing the vehicle has a clean history and and above board with no stolen parts of salvage records to devalue the restoration efforts. My investment in producing a great restoration of a vintage Bike can go forward without worries...

Almost excellent
May 6, 2022

Only missing feature I was expecting for, was the list of extra equipment installed by OEM in this particular car, based on VIN.
For this reason don't qualify for 5 stars.

A1+ vehicle life story checker.
May 6, 2022

Since discovering Car Vertical I no longer use any other history checker as I find Car Vertical the most comprehensive service bar none. I highly recommend Car Vertical to both private buyers and those in the motor trade on a daily basis.

Not a scam if you ask me
May 4, 2022

Car vertical pretty much does what it says. Basically they give you the car report with all the info they can gather and with a good price too! When you go for the two reports at once, and apply a coupon (you can find one on any youtuber carvertical sponsored video), you get the price no other site can match. I purchased two reports, first was poor, only four mileage history reports, but it was enough for me to estimate the seller was trying to trick me with the mileage. The second report was a different story, I got a ton of mileage and service history, and a damage note - downside to that is that it did not say what was damaged and had no pictures - but overall I am very pleased with the report. ONLY downside is that it does not tell you upfront how many history records you have in the report like some other sites do, so what i had to do is to check the VIN on the other site to see if there is any records on that VIN, and if so, then i would go and purchase carvertical report.

All in all, good reports, recommended.

Oikein hyvä palvelu! Tämän arvion ansiosta jäi tuontiauto ostamatta. Muutoin olisi tullut vaarannettua perheen turvallisuus mahdollisesti runkoviallisella autolla. Osasin paremmin katsoa saumojen liikkumiset.

I was impressed with the content of the report(s) and satisfied. It made me feel more forearmed to proceed with a purchase.
Additionally there was a suggested check list for an on-site inspection if I were to do the inspection on my own. Very useful.

Detailed Report
May 1, 2022

Wry impressed with Car Vertical reports. Far more detailed than other HPI checks. Would highly recommend. Even included images of one car we were interested in as it was a write off. Images showed the extent of the damages.

For half of the amount paid here, I received more information about the damages of the checked cars from another similar site (twice more damages found).
More than that, the same other site found 3 issues / reasons for recalls by the manufacturer at the checked models, compared to 0 (zero) found here...
Not to mention that, included in the same price, I received from the other site also an estimated value of the checked cars, based on the production year + the mileage...
I know that "Advertising is the soul of the business", but it seems that in this case there is too much advertising and too few concrete results here...

Good
April 29, 2022

Found 2 cars with modified mileage :) -one of which had an accident (that I was specified).
I feel it's a good service. I can't say it's cheap, but worth giving just before buying your car.

Acest program este super ok de a verifica mașina înainte de a o achiziționa. Nu arata chiar 100%, în cazul meu, a uneia din mașină care este fabricata în 2009 graficul de km începe din 2014 când i s a făcut revizia, nu înțeleg între anii 2009 și 2014 ce s a întâmplat ca pleacă km de la 93.000.
In rest la cealaltă mașina îmi arata km de când a fost inmatriculata(anul fabricației) și pana în prezent.

Their ALL search should be extended at least for all EU countries, currently it is not the case. So the user can not be sure, how accurate is their analyses. Well if the country was registered from the first time in Hungary, and you buy the car there, then it should be a very good accuracy. But if the first registration was not there, then you cna not be sure

No info in report
April 25, 2022

I tried this on my own previous car (changed owner twice) and my current car (same). The reports are empty: no info regarding accidents that actually happened, not even info about cars being sold (despite being on public car dealerships websites), etc.
Just paid 20E for basic model info.

Euros in 2022 to 42.7 mln. Euros in 2023. This significant growth is a direct result of the company’s strategic shift to Western European markets, product development, and the attraction of new user segments.
