I almost bought a car which had been a taxi! The guy selling it said it was only used as a second car. I checked the car with Vehicle Ancestry and it came back as being used as a Uber for 3 years. Don’t believe all a seller tells you I’m glad I didn’t. Thank you, Vehicle Ancestry.
Thank you Vehicle Ancestry! I’ve been looking to buy me lad his first car, and being older I thought I knew my stuff, I guess you never stop learning. Lucky my son came across this check service on Facebook, it saved us from buying an ex Leaner driver car which loads of other leaners probably used before. I knew the clutch wasn’t right.
So ANGRY! I can’t believe that I have just travelled 100 miles to see a car which was described as “one owner in perfect condition”, only to check it with Vehicles Ancestry and find out it was an ex police car. Other buyers please be aware that many garages don’t use Vehicle Ancestry. How do they get away with hiding such crucial information? Vehicle Ancestry thank you for helping me, I’ve told all my friends about you.
Why you should get a VAL check
Get the knowledge
- The market value of a vehicle could be affected by up to 20% less.
- You’re entitled to money back from a dealer if they have sold you a vehicle without disclosing its previous usage accurately.
- The previous usage of a vehicle could affect the performance of the vehicle, for example fast response cars may be more susceptible to needing tyre changes and having engine issues. Taxis are more likely to be clocked and have increased repair and maintenance costs.

- Our data isn’t included in provenances checks, apart from recognized partners (MotorCheck & VCheck).
