If you find another car check service that offers more than we do for less, we will give you your money back.
Looking to buy a used car?
Stop. Don’t buy a Dodgy Car.
Make sure you get it checked.
There are a lot of car checking websites which offer ‘cheap’ or a free check. However when it comes to finding out some of the important information you end up paying extra. Car Guide is different. With our Buyer’s Report you get all the information you need, more data than anyone else and we will guide you through the buying process.
Car Guide offers the most comprehensive car check on the market.
What can Car Guide answer
(that other car checks can't)?
- What repairs should've been carried out?
- How much will future repairs cost?
- What might cause the vehicle to fail its next MOT/?
- Has the car been a high-use taxi in a previous life?
- Has it had unrecorded serious damage?
- What should the service history look like?
- How much will future servicing cost?
…and much, much more!
