The Full Vehicle Check is the complete picture of a vehicle in a single request.
What's included
One call returns four products merged into one normalized response:
- DVLA vehicle details — make, colour, fuel, tax and MOT status.
- Complete MOT history — every test, mileage reading and advisory.
- Current valuation — trade, retail and private values.
- Provenance check — write-off category, outstanding finance, and stolen/scrapped markers.
It's the call to make before money changes hands in a purchase or finance journey.
How the pricing works
The bundle isn't a flat price — it's 95% of the combined Tier 1 price of its components, rounded up to the nearest 5p. At Tier 1 that works out to £3.25 per lookup, cheaper than calling the four products separately, and it's a single round-trip for your users. Like every product, the per-lookup rate falls with volume.
If a source is unavailable
The response still returns with whatever resolved successfully — an unavailable source simply omits its block. You never get fabricated data.

It's called exactly like any other product:
