UK'S MOST COMPREHENSIVE CAR HISTORY CHECK ONLY £9.99
It is important to get a car scrap check before you buy a used car. This helps ensure that the vehicle, van or motorbike you’re thinking of buying hasn’t previously been scrapped. Simply enter your registration for a comprehensive history check which includes a scrap check.
Using data from the DVLA, this will check through its history to see whether it has once been recorded as scrapped.
Always ask for paperwork when purchasing a used car to avoid being scammed into buying a scrapped car. We strongly advise using our reg checker to discover any hidden history that the seller might not inform you of in order to get a sale.
You’ll need to inform the DVLA that your vehicle has been scrapped. After taking your vehicle to a scrapyard, you’ll need to keep the yellow transfer section of your V5C and give the rest of the document to the breaker.
Each vehicle scrap check we offer uses data from the DVLA, so you can remain reassured that the results are accurate.
