A typical report should consist of the following: how many owners the car has been titled to, if the vehicle has ever been involved in any accidents, any major repairs, dates of previous inspections and/or emissions tests, dates of services, and finally there should be approximate mileage listings.

There are 2 aspects to consider when purchasing a used vehicle:

- History:

Best assessed by VIN checks and Vehicle History Reports.

- Present condition:

Best assessed by expert and thorough physical inspection.

The history is just as important as the present condition, and one should not be done without the other. They work hand-in-hand to create a complete picture of the state of a vehicle.

When a CarFax report states that a vehicle was routinely serviced and lists the consecutive dates of oil change, brake service, transmission repairs or work, airbag repair or work, suspension service or repairs, or that some electrical service or repairs were performed, that clearly contributes a great deal to the present state of the car.

VIN reports have been commonplace since the 1990s in the USA and Canada, where most vehicles are imported to Nigeria from. Today no smart used car buyer would buy a car without a VIN or history report in the USA or Canada, even most dealers already have the reports at hand for any prospective customers, hence the popular jingle "Show me the CarFax!".

Relying on just the VIN or just the inspection alone would likely lead to an incomplete impression of the state of the vehicle.

Consider

A buyer looking for a vehicle contacts dealers who have about 5 models of the vehicle in their stock.

A

The dealers send the VIN for all 5 vehicles to the buyer who runs VIN checks and does some research for all 5 using the VIN, before visiting the dealers premises to see the vehicles and arrange inspection for 2 or 3 based on the information available from the VIN reports.

B

The buyer spends more time, money and logistics to arrange inspections with no VIN report beforehand for all the vehicles, which has to be done for all of them to decide which vehicles are in the best condition.

A would definitely be less expensive, more effective and lead to the client purchasing a vehicle in better condition.

Consider again

The VIN check reveals that 1 of the vehicles was flood damaged, 2 were in accidents involving the airbags, while 2 were clean titles with fair mileage and no other negative history.

Instead of the client to pay an expert for inspection for 5 vehicles, he may pay for just 2 or 3, based on the VIN reports. It's not a 100% approach, but it is much more likely to lead to a good purchase.

For a flood damaged vehicle, which even some "expert" inspection may not detect, a good way to establish that would be a VIN report.

In some situations it may not be possible to get a VIN check for a car, for example cars from some parts of the world. In such cases the buyer has no option but to rely on the inspection alone.

To conclude, both approaches are necessary to achieve the aim of making a good vehicle purchase, and a VIN report before inspection increases the effectiveness of the inspection.

CarGuideNG provides buyers with customized or standard VIN or history reports for vehicles to greatly increase the buyer's chances of making a good purchase. We also always encourage clients to get a VIN report, and have any vehicles inspected by an expert before purchase.

You cant know the state of a car's engine with VIN reports.
I do my oil change and recommended maintenance at home.This wont be in the history of the car.
And more so the information provided to Carfax etc are from third parties which which are not obligated to report any.
I have a car with 65k miles with a failed transmission.I have rebuilt the transmission and will be sold at an auction but you will never see that on the VIN report.
