LOOK A LITTLE CLOSER
Our visual guides help you ask better questions.
These illustrations are not records of damage to your car.
A photograph alone cannot establish an insurance write-off category. Use recorded findings and a qualified inspection to understand the damage.
INTERACTIVE WALKAROUND
Look for uneven panel gaps, mismatched paint and damaged lights. Ask about repairs and supporting invoices.
GOOD QUESTIONS
Clear answers, without the jargon.
No. A check can only report the records available to it. Unrecorded damage or repairs may not appear. Inspect the vehicle and consider an independent mechanical inspection.
Accident photographs are not promised as part of either package. The damage images on this page are educational illustrations, not evidence about a searched vehicle.
Basic focuses on vehicle information, MOT history, specification and indicative valuation. Full adds the available finance, stolen, scrapped, insurance write-off and mileage anomaly checks.
The free DVLA lookup remains in CERSUS Appraisal. It provides a different set of information and does not replace the paid history checks.
Managers can purchase shared credit in CERSUS Appraisal. For trade enquiries, contact support@cersus.co.uk.
