Free stolen and lost car checks now available to UK motorists buying used cars.
Motorists no longer have to pay to find out if the used car or motorbike they are about to purchase is one of more than 300,000 cars and motorbikes stolen each year in the UK.
Checkmyfile.com has launched the UKs first free, online Police Stolen Vehicle Check, sanctioned by The Police Information Technology Organisation a government agency that provides information technology, communications systems and services to the Police.
Barry Stamp, Joint Managing Director of checkmyfile.com, the UKs leading online credit reporting agency, says, When a consumer buys a used car, there is always the big fear it may have been stolen. Because of the way our laws work, many have lost both their new car and their money because they didnt check if the car they were about to buy was stolen.
Now a quick, free check of the police lost or stolen database, on checkmyfile.com, will help to cut the number of people who fall victim to buying stolen cars. If a member of the public has bought a car recently they can also gain peace of mind by checking it isnt stolen.
