What we check for when preparing a report

Carlytics is the largest online database of used vehicle records. It contains more than a billion data points from all over the world.

Damage

Damage

We check if the car has been in any accidents or had serious repairs. Damage can lower the car's value and cause safety problems. Our report helps you avoid cars with hidden damage that sellers might not tell you about.

Mileage rollbacks

Mileage rollbacks

We look for signs that the mileage might have been changed. Some sellers lower the mileage to make the car look newer. We check mileage records from different databases to make sure the numbers are honest.

Specs & equipment

Specs & equipment

We list the car's original features and equipment. This helps you see if anything is missing or changed. You'll know exactly what the car should have when it left the factory.

Safety

Safety

Manufacturers typically issue safety recalls to fix harmful defects. Make sure your car doesn't have any before taking it on the road and also learn its general safety rating.

Natural disaster

Natural disaster

Check if the vehicle has been damaged in floods, hurricanes, or other natural disasters.

Stolen car database

Stolen car database

We check police and insurance records to see if the car has been reported stolen. Buying a stolen car can lead to big legal and financial problems. Our report gives you peace of mind.

Photos

Photos

If available, we include old photos or auction pictures of the car. <br />These photos can show past damage, repairs, or changes that you might not notice in person.

Market value

Market value

We compare prices from many sources to show the car's fair market value.<br />This helps you know if the price is good or too high, so you can make a smart deal.

Why Run a VIN Check Before Buying a Used Car?

An estimated 30-50% of used cars sold cross-border in Europe have tampered mileage. Carlytics catches odometer rollbacks, undisclosed accident damage, stolen-vehicle flags, and open safety recalls by scanning 900M+ records across 35+ countries -- all from a single 17-character VIN, starting free.

Don't risk thousands on a used car with hidden problems. A free VIN check takes seconds and can save you from costly surprises.

Detect Odometer Fraud

An estimated 30-50% of used cars in Europe have tampered mileage. A VIN history check reveals odometer rollback and mileage discrepancies that sellers try to hide.

Uncover Hidden Accident Damage

Structural damage from past accidents may not be visible during a physical inspection. A vehicle history report shows collision records the seller may not disclose.

Verify Stolen Vehicle Status

Over 600,000 vehicles are stolen in the EU each year, many resold across borders. Our stolen car database check confirms the vehicle is legally clear before you buy.

Check Cross-Border Import History

Vehicles imported from abroad may have different specs, undisclosed damage, or missing service records. Trace the full registration and import history with a VIN check.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a vehicle history report?
A vehicle history report is a comprehensive document that traces a car's life from factory to present day. It includes the original manufacturer specifications, odometer readings from official inspections, accident and damage records, theft status, safety recalls, ownership history, and market value estimates — all verified against government registries and official databases.
What does the Carlytics vehicle history report include?
The full report covers 24 sections: decoded specifications, mileage history (from 52M+ Czech, Dutch, and Danish inspection records), accident and damage records, stolen vehicle database check, safety recalls (NHTSA + EU Safety Gate + Transport Canada), market value from 348,000+ real listings, running cost and tax estimates, common problems for your make/model, and import/registration history.
How much does a vehicle history report cost?
A Carlytics vehicle history report costs EUR 8.90 — a one-time payment with no subscription or hidden fees. This is 55–70% less than carVertical (EUR 19.99–29.99) and autoDNA (EUR 9.99), with the same core data from European government registries.
How is Carlytics different from carVertical or autoDNA?

Carlytics pulls data directly from official government sources: Czech ISTP (52M inspection records), Dutch RDW, NHTSA, EU Safety Gate, Finnish Traficom, and more.
