THINKING OF BUYING?
Before you hand over the cash, we help you:
Spot the red flags. Failed MOTs, dangerous defects, things that keep coming back.
See how this one stacks up against others of the same make, model, and year.
Check for stolen, insurance write-offs, or outstanding finance (premium).
Get a heads up on what's likely to go wrong next, and roughly when.
ALREADY OWN ONE?
Track your car's reliability, value, and long term health. Find out:
How your car compares to others like it.
What tends to go wrong at your mileage.
Whether your miles are high, low, or about right for the age.
What it'd fetch if you sold tomorrow.
Save it to your garage and keep tabs on it over time.
JUST BROWSING?
Vehicle Explorer is free. Browse reliability data across 18.9 million UK cars. See which Focus years are clutch killers, which Qashqais rust, which 3 Series just keep going. No credits, no sign-up.
WHAT YOU GET PER CHECK (1 credit)
Health Score (0 to 100)
Each car gets its own score based on its MOT record and how it compares to similar ones. High score, clean history. Low score, time to ask questions.
AI Verdict
Not just numbers. A proper written-up opinion. Strengths, concerns, recommendation. Written fresh for the actual car you're looking at.
Failure Forecast
What tends to break next on this make and model at this mileage. Based on what's actually happened to millions of similar cars.
Market Valuation
What it's worth, with a sensible range. Low, likely, and high. Useful when you're haggling. Or just curious.
Full Specifications
Engine, BHP, torque, 0 to 60, top speed, MPG, transmission, towing, dimensions, CO2, Euro status. The lot.
Keeper History
How many people have owned it, when each one took over, and how long they kept it. Quick-flip after 6 months? You'll see it. Owned by one careful driver for 12 years? You'll see that too.
Higgy
Your AI car expert. Ask anything. "Is this mileage suspicious?" "What's the worst that could go wrong?" "Should I haggle?" He'll walk you through the report and help you make sense of it.
AI Photo Analysis
Got photos from the ad? Upload them and get a quick read on condition. Handy when you can't view in person yet.
Shareable Reports
Fire the report off to your dad, your mate who knows about cars, anyone. No login needed at their end.
Full MOT History
Every test the car's ever had. Mileage, failures, advisories, dangerous defects, all laid out clearly.
BACKGROUND CHECK (25 credits)
A full vehicle history check for when the stakes are higher:
Stolen (Police National Computer).
Insurance write-offs (Cat N, S, A, B).
Outstanding HP, PCP, or lease finance.
PRICING
5 free checks to start you off. After that, credits from 20p each. Buy 10, 25, or 50.
No subscription, no auto-renewal, credits don't expire.
WHERE THE DATA COMES FROM
DVLA, DVSA, licensed vehicle data providers, and our own analysis of 132 million MOT tests. Updated regularly.
