As said thers text ones for a quid or so, although they dont give one of the vital bits of info. Think its outstanding finance iirc....tells you everything else.

£14.99 for peace of mind when your spending a bit of cash is money well spent imo. HPI's stopped me from getting burned twice in the past!!

What car is it?? M£

Go and take a look at it, a write off should be visible miles away, if it's not written off and you think it's possibly got finance outstanding then get it checked.

I just used Drivebuy for £3 - all seems ok.

Its a Jan 2003 Beemer 330Ci with 65000 miles on the clock. The only strange thing is it had 6 owners, but that doesnt make no odds to me if its a good motor.

It is generally true, it won't always be true though, hence my sentence containing the word 'should'.

Thanks.

Mines 2005 & im the 4th or 5th owner.

Wouldnt put me off, mine was 1st reg'd by Cooper BMW in London & then an owner a year with the previous owner to me bringing it up from darn saarf to the town next to me. But really so what!

Just make sure its not crashed or stolen via text
