Working together for a more transparent motor retailing experience
Welcome to Vehicle Ancestry
For many years we have been providing the motor industry with details of previously licensed taxi & private hire vehicles. This database has grown to include public sector vehicles and Vehicles of Interest (VOI), Example track day cars or 4×4 experience day vehicles.
This unique dataset is the biggest in the UK, trusted and used by the biggest names in used car retailing. Having spent over 30 years in motor retail myself, I can call upon my own personal experiences when offering comment.
Our links with MotorCheck go back to our early days when Shane Teskey recognised the need for this valuable data to be included in a provenance check report; a collaboration that still works today.
If you’re using a “traditional provenance provider”, I would strongly recommend speaking to Shane who can include our data within their vehicle check reports. Failing to tell a consumer the previous past use of a vehicle could result in the vehicle being returned years after you’ve sold it, a very costly experience.
