About this app

carVertical is a VIN check and VIN lookup app that provides detailed car and motorcycle history reports. Buying a used car? Check the vehicle history before you pay and avoid expensive surprises.

Enter a VIN to review available mileage records, accident and damage history, theft records, taxi use, historical photos, ownership changes, price history, and other important vehicle information.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Find the VIN on the vehicle title document, dashboard, body, or motorcycle frame. Enter the VIN in the carVertical app. Get a detailed vehicle history report and compare the records with the seller's claims.

WHAT CAN A REPORT INCLUDE?

If available, carVertical reports may include mileage history, damage records, theft checks, previous use, historical photos, price changes, ownership changes, service-related details, equipment information, and other facts that help you understand a vehicle's past.

WHY CHECK VEHICLE HISTORY?

Mileage rollbacks, hidden damage, previous accidents, theft records, and poorly maintained vehicles can cost thousands in repairs and create safety risks. A car history check helps you make a more confident decision before buying, selling, or inspecting a used vehicle.

Use carVertical for VIN lookup, vehicle history reports, car history checks, damage history, mileage checks, theft checks, historical photos, ownership details, price history, service records, equipment details, and used car research before you buy.

Download carVertical and check a VIN before your next used car purchase.

I used this app due to their big push on social media and their claims. the car I purchased, following a 90% rating from car vertical, turned out to be a cloned car and I'm now out the full amount of the cost. carvertical has since been in touch and offered me some discount to buy a search again in order for them to view cars profile... I would recommend getting a hpi check

scammers! you buy credits to check car history etc. but if you have a spare credit or two - it has a lifespan of 3-6 months!!! if you're not going to use it- it'll disappear! literally money down the drain! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

Not as in depth as I had envisaged whoch could be a good or bad thing as there appear to be no issues, so I am saving the codt of buying s stolen/damaged car. Even with a "HIGHPEAK" discount I thought that the £30+ a little expensive
