About AutoViewer
Buying a used car should not mean jumping between multiple websites, trying to decode MOT records or guessing what the numbers actually mean.
AutoViewer brings useful UK vehicle information together in one clear place.
Enter a registration and quickly see the details that matter - MOT history, recorded mileage, tax status, recalls, vehicle information and buying insights.
Our goal is simple: make vehicle data easier to understand before you buy.

Independent and straightforward
AutoViewer is an independent service.
We are not affiliated with or endorsed by DVLA, DVSA or any vehicle manufacturer.
Where available, we use official UK vehicle data and present it in a simpler, more useful format.
We do not want to overwhelm users with jargon, dozens of tabs or meaningless statistics.
If a piece of information can help someone make a better buying decision, we show it clearly.
If we do not have reliable data, we do not pretend that we do.
What the Buyer Score means
The AutoViewer Buyer Score is our interpretation of the vehicle history available to us.
It can consider signals such as:
- MOT results
- repeated defects or advisories
- mileage consistency
- safety recalls
It is designed to make patterns easier to understand.
It is not a mechanical inspection, valuation or guarantee of vehicle condition.
A vehicle should always be inspected properly before purchase.
