I did just the basic check and got the result back in literally ten seconds,i did have a concern over a purchase and it showed up on the report.If you are going to spend a lot of money then this service in my opinion is vital.

Son buys his first car. does EVERYTHING right according to the police only to find its stolen a week later With words on their website says things like "HPI uses cutting edge technology to ensure you get accurate and up-to-date information. We are so confident in the accuracy of our car check data that we back it with a £30,000 guarantee" "At HPI, we work hard to ensure that the data we receive and manage is the best available but no data source is perfect. That’s why your HPI vehicle check includes the HPI Guarantee" "The HPI Check therefore includes a guarantee (the “HPI Guarantee”) which is designed to cover key types of financial loss" "The Basic Check offers protection from some of the more basic motor fraud risks" only to then be pointed 3000+ words down the terms and conditions to find out "Basic Checks are not covered by the HPI Guarantee" Be Warned!! NO COMEBACK when the car turns out to be stolen Trading Standards are looking into false advertising

As a new driver buying my first car HPI check gave me the confidence to take that final step....i would recommend it to anyone thinking of buying a used car

An invaluable tool to assist when making an important decision on whether to buy a car or not. It gave me an insight into MOT advisories which I would probably have glossed over but would become problematic and expensive in the future.

prompts you to add all details to protect you in your purchase of a vehicle. easy to use and clear interface. I'm buying my vehicle long distance so this will save me a load of wasted time and ensure all is above board

Quick and hassle free, lots of information, not cheap but certainly worth it when you buy.

This just gave us peace of mind when buying our car, and for a very reasonable cost. Could even confirm chassis number etc on the day. Would definitely use this again.

I did this check on behalf of my grand-daughter who has a young family. Thank goodness I did! The HPI check results saved me from paying for (what would have been) a VERY expensive heap of junk. Don't go by a clean exterior and interior - get an HPI check on the condition of the workings of the car!

Each check has come back with very useful information about individual vehicles enabling me to make an informed decision about the right vehicle to purchase.

Peace of mind
