ServiceByReg is a UK vehicle check for people about to buy. Enter a registration and we look for the things that decide whether a car is safe to buy at all: stolen markers, insurance write-off category and outstanding finance. Free tax and MOT come first; add the paid risk report when you need it.
ServiceByReg covers pre-purchase risk checks by registration. Enter a registration to start.
Free vehicle page first. Paid reports stay optional. See packages.
Two one-off checks. No subscription, no renewal, no fine print.
£9.99
Know the risks before you shake on it. The checks that stop a bad car being your problem.
Charged when you order. These checks run against data we can always reach, so there is no no-find-no-fee condition on this one.
£16.99
The whole story, bonnet to boot. Everything above plus the service record the manufacturer holds for the car.
We only take payment when manufacturer service records are found.
Authorised when you order, charged only once manufacturer service records have been found. If there are none, the hold is released and you pay nothing.
Private buyers checking a car before they view it, put down a deposit or hand over money.
Vehicle details come from DVLA's vehicle enquiry service, MOT history from DVSA, and service records from the manufacturer's own record where one is held for the vehicle. ServiceByReg is not part of DVLA or DVSA.
