Buying a used car? This is why you should consider a car history check

A car check can be one of the most important things you do before buying a new used car. Why? Because there is a lot of used cars that have hidden history, so why risk it? A Used car is likely to be one of the most expensive purchases you make after buying your home, so you want to ensure you are making the right purchase decision. This is where a vehicle history check can help. Not only will it uncover any hidden traps, but it can also serve as a tool to negotiate a better price.

The Car Expert has partnered with Car Guide, a car history checking site to bring transparency into the used car buying.

We pride ourselves on providing the most comprehensive car check on the market.

Why should I get a car check with Car Guide rather than any other HPI check alternative?

Car Guide is redefining ‘car checks’ or ‘HPI Checks’ by focusing on the information that helps buyers save time, money and highlights future risks.

It is the only car check that doesn’t just look at a car’s history but also its future. Car Guide is the only car check powered by machine learning which can predict what is likely to go wrong and specifically which components are likely to fail in the future. Our report also looks at any previous and upcoming services & repairs, allowing motorists not only to better negotiate the car price, but also plan better for future expenditure.

And on top of all that, it is not only better, it’s cheaper, too.
