Cheap HPI Check for Cars
Comments
-
Some dealers will do an HPI for £99. Total ripoff.
If your serious about the car then do your own. Its worth spending £20 - £30.
If someone on here does a check, You buy it and it later turns out to be dodgy you have no comeback. You didnt HPI it.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
Autocheck certainly seems to be the best value,
information site at freehpi.co.uk explains more about all the checks,
some are big rip offs £2 to check, and the sell it on to us at £35+. What a joke
Freehpi.co.uk has gone. It now belongs to hpi check. I don't think they liked it. Lol
You can get a car check at car check uk for £4.50 or five for a tenner. It includes stolen and insurance data and vin check which some cheap checks don't.0 -
Dont do the cheap checks they are a waste of money. If you need an HPI check do a proper one.

would really appreciate if anyone has a spare check?
I am planning to by this car (PK05 yhx) on weekend...
Anyone got any check left would be extremely grateful. Message me. Thanks.0 -
If someone has a left over hpi check I'd be very grateful if they'd run a car through for me.
Please pm for the reg details. Happy to pay a few quid for it by PayPal.

Just checked my own car as I had an accident a few years back and they paid me for it, and said they would not class it as a write off! and happily they were telling me the truth.
It says its £2.99 however when I paid through paypal they charged me only £2.49! RESULT!0 -
Except its less than 100% reliable and offers zero protection.
Odd how their website says briiliantly simple from autoexpress yet the test failed to show a BMW had finance owed on it.
So i will stick to my previous thoughts. AVOID... cheap checks...Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
