Stan, MOT and tax details can be checked on line with DVLA for free (GOV.UK web site, check if a vehicle is taxed), rather than paying these people nearly £3 a time for the privilege. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up 2006 (56 Reg) 4.4 V8 Vogue In Bonatti Grey (Gorgeous!!)

Didn't try it - just saw the £2.85 per check and didn't realise this was for the full report. Embarassed 2006 (56 Reg) 4.4 V8 Vogue In Bonatti Grey (Gorgeous!!)

I've just checked our car and its completely incorrect! It says that there is a 75% risk level!

'Note: This is a comparative value of the potential risk of hidden issues with this vehicle that can only be uncovered by purchasing a Total Car Check.'

Sounds like a rip-off site to me!

Better off using the DVLA and / or HPI

re the recalls, mine had 3 but it does say that these recalls might not be for your specific vehicle... ... - .- -.
