Vehicle History Check
A history check covers what MOT data doesn't: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, theft markers, scrap records. Worth doing before you commit.

One test was 20 days late: the certificate ran out on 10 August 2023 and the next test was 30 August. Under a month, so no warning.
Fewer than five cars of this make, model family and year have been scored, so there is no average to compare against.
All 5 odometer readings on this vehicle's MOT record show consistent forward progression. Average usage works out at 17,084 miles per year. No mileage anomalies detected in the digital record.
About 1 month of this car's testable life isn't covered by a test. Too little to move the score by more than a point.
DVLA records this car's tax status as Taxed.
This vehicle's last 3 MOTs have all been clean: passed without failures, advisories, or noted defects. A current run of consistent clean tests is one of the strongest positive signals available in MOT data.
A vehicle with this registration was advertised as a write-off, or as repaired from declared damage, without saying which category (seen August 2026). Ask the seller which it is; Cat S means structural damage, Cat N non-structural. Bonafied has not verified this, and registration plates can be transferred between vehicles, so this may relate to a different car that once carried this plate. An HPI check is the way to confirm the formal write-off register and other history Bonafied does not check. The tier shown above is set to Proceed with Care because of this advertised status. The score comes from the MOT record and has not been changed.
None of the 5 tests recorded a structural defect: corrosion or damage to a part the car's strength depends on.
DVLA records the car's first UK registration within two years of its manufacture, so nothing suggests an import. Its registration is a normal age-related plate, not a Q-plate.
Average 17,084 miles per year.
