    HPI and NMR are connected, but HPI checks have only recently started putting the National Mileage Register information on the HPI checks - Hence the seller wasn't aware of the input error at the time of purchase?

    Mileage checks have been done on HPi checks for years.
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    had you seen the hpi check BEFORE you signed the papers for the finance?
    No I had not seen the HPI, or any paperwork that shows any kind of checks had been done. I was also told at the time of purchase that there was a full service history with the car, and then they went on to sell me NAC warranty, which in turn because of the lack of service history was invalid.

    So when the water pump went on the car 9 moths later I had to pay for all the costs and the repair, although carcraft did make a gesture of a service and mot, but at first they wanted me to pay for that too.

    Oh dear... shudders at the thought of a carcraft service and MOT..

    I would be waiting for the wheels to fall off and a list of faults they created.
