Three Star Check

Price: From €25*

A Cartell Three Star Car Check will enable you to check:

The number of previous owners – compare the entry on your Cartell Car Check and the VRC
If the vehicle has been off the road for long periods – report will show tax gaps and if the tax expiry date is in the past.
Dates of sale – including all trade and private registered sales.

If the vehicle is the correct specification – compare detailed model on report, on the vehicle and Vehicle Registration Certificate (VRC) to see if they match.
If the engine has been changed – may be an indication that the vehicle has been involved in a front side collision.
If the vehicle is a clone or a “cut-and-shut” – cross-reference vehicle Chassis Number and VRC with Cartell Car Check. If different, the vehicle may have the identity of another vehicle or possibly stolen.
If the vehicle documentation is valid or forged – compare VRC and NCT Certificate Number and details on Cartell Car Check and vehicle. If VRC does not match the vehicle may be stolen. If the NCT Certificate does not match the NCT may be invalid.

If the odometer reading entered highlighted any discrepancies which may require further investigation.

If the vehicle has been recorded as Scrapped or Written Off (Source National Vehicles File).

If the vehicle is subject to a financial agreement – if the outstanding finance remains unpaid when you purchase the vehicle, you may not acquire title to it.

If the vehicle has been imported – report will provide previous registration and date of first registration in Ireland. You will also receive the full HPI UK Check in addition to the Irish History & Finance Check
