In my opinion no one should buy a motor car without conducting a Cartell history check. A Cartell history check report is value for money and will provide you with peace of mind. The staff at Cartell were genuinely helpful and explained everything in detail. I can’t rate them highly enough.

Westward Scania have been using the Cartell.ie VRM service for a number of years now. We find the ability to search on vehicle registrations to find the chassis number and model extremely useful when our customers do not have their full details to hand.
This saves us a lot of time, and means that we can respond to our customers quickly with the correct part or service information. I frequently recommend the use of cartell.ie to colleagues in the Motor trade as an invaluable resource.
R. McDonnell (IS/IT Manager)

I would like to commend you company on an excellent service. This was the first time I have used cartell.ie and it has prevented me from buying an insurance write off imported from the UK. I will definetly be recomending you to anybody thinking about buying a used car.
Thanks again
Steve (Consumer)

Just checked a second hand car on cartell.ie. My mechanic had inspected the car, both of us test drove it. All seemed great. Did a cartell.ie check, turns out there was outstanding finance I would have been left to pay and the car was previously a write off! I spent 25 Euro and saved myself literally thousands and also saved myself from driving an unsafe car. I’ll be looking up every car I want to buy from now on. Cartell found problems no mechanic could find. When I went back to the seller and told him I’d done a cartell.ie check his face dropped. He knew there was no hiding or trying to pull the wool over my eyes.

Thank you Cartell for saving me from making a very expensive mistake on the first week of the new year. Clearly it is not a problem if a car is imported but if it has less on the odometer 2 years later, that is!
Thanks again,
James S (Consumer)

I wanted to express my thanks to your company for saving me from potential fraud in the purchase of a second hand car recently. I had agreed to purchase a ’03 Jaguar from a garage in South County Dublin which was advertised as a two owner vehicle however you can’t image my horror to discover from your very comprehensive report that there was in fact 4 owners related to the car and it had been imported from the UK. When I addressed the garage in question with the evidence they attempted to ‘cover their tracks’ rather than admit the attempted deceit. Purchasing a report from Cartell saved me a considerible sum and the potential future loss when selling on the car, never mind the embarresment.
Very glad not to have lost a fortune and still have the opportunity to purchase a car with a full transparent history!
N. D. (Consumer)

This Service is Providing Peace of Mind to our Customers for years I Urge more and more consumers to do the checks so that Car clocking and cloning and selling cars that have finance owed or bad history can be a thing of the Past That is why offer Cartell reports with all our vehicles for sale and I urge all other dealers to do it also, Thanks again
Anthony C. (Dealer)

the service is excellent and i will be using it in the future

I really found Cartell helpful when I was looking to buy my new car. I checked lots of cars before I decided on what to purchase. The majority of the cars I checked all came back as Category B, C or D Write offs or had some sort of a mileage discrepancy some of these discrepancies were really bad.
This really put me of even going to view the cars that were advertised and it just proved to me that if you do not get your vehicle checked before you purchase you do not really know what you are purchasing or what you could be getting yourself into.
I also have discovered that some insurance companies will not even insure you on certain category write offs or if they do they could charge you a huge premium.
My advice to anyone buying a new or second hand car would be get it checked out by Cartell before you buy it , All you need is the registration and mileage make and model believe me it will be well worth it for the small price you pay, It could end up costing you hundreds in repairs if you do not get it checked out.
I have to say a huge thanks to everyone in Cartell for all their help. Buyer beware.
John B. (Consumer)

Thank you very much for the information, obviously I’ve been lied to and will not be going near the vehicle. Thanks for the prompt response and the service which obviously stopped me buying something dodgy.
Gearoid (Consumer)

An hour ago I could have lost EUR 3,500 were it not for Cartell. You do fantastic work!
Pat D (Consumer)

Well done Cartell I was just about to buy a very nice looking 4×4 until I got your report, it was a professionally disguised category C insurance write off. I can’t imagine how I would feel if I had put my family at risk in this vehicle. Thumbs up to you Guys & Gals
Thomas (Consumer)

…we have been particularly interested in a number of cars, including a 2004 citroen xsara picasso- which after checking with Cartell had a number of significant discrepancies on its history, so thanks to Cartell we were saved from purchasing a dud!
Clare (Consumer)

Appreciate you saving me from buying a dodgy car a few years ago and for giving me all the info on the car I did buy!

Ted M (Consumer via Cartell.ie Facebook Page)

I was looking at a 06 Diesel Passat which was good value. I have two small children so I Cartelled it just to be on the safe side. Turned out the car was a category c write-off in the UK which scared me off. I didn’t even know it was imported! I ended up getting a new Octavia instead using the scrappage deal. Thanks, I avoided making a big mistake.

“I recently started using Cartell and have found it easy to use and very informative, I love the pay as u use aspect and the high level of customer care and service which to say the least is exceptional, if Cartell say they will get further information and get back to you then that is exactly what they will do and quickly. The layout of the information is good and the printable version as a silent salesman offers a further level of professionalism to your business and further increases the confidence of the customer in dealing with you, as they can see all the information on the history of the car. I am coming to the end of my initial outlay and will definitely be renewing my subscription.”
Kind regards, Michael Butler, Managing director, Windsor Galway (Dealer)

Cartell.ie ticked all of these boxes hence becoming TMG’s preferred partner.  The integration of the Cartell Services were seamless and the partnership continues to be a valuable addition to our business offering.”
Warren Cray, Digital Development Manager, Trader Media Group (B2B Customer)

Lately all people have a tendency to do is complain. For a change, I wanted to say thank you for the fantastic prompt service that you provide. At the end of the day its up to the user to decide whether to buy the car or not but your clear precise reports certainly provide a genuine history of any vehicle. Thanks again.”
Sandra R (consumer)

Well as you know, we use Cartell.ie to check every vehicle we take in, it gives us, and also our clients complete peace of mind. On a couple of occasions using Cartell.ie has shown up something in the vehicles history that was not apparent to the eye, and therefore has saved us money. We are happy to recommend Cartell.ie to others.
Ken Furlong, Michael Moore Car Sales (Dealer)

Just emailing to say a big thanks to you guys. I was purchasing a 2006 toyota celica which had been imported from the UK, I test drove it and checked it over and all seemed fine so I gave a deposit. After I got home I ran a Cartell check on it only to discover that it had an extra previous owner which had not been disclosed to me and more importantly it had been written off in the UK too. So credit where credit is due…thanks again, you saved me a lot of heartache and money if I had bought it.”
