Cheapest Way to Check for Oustanding Finance?

macman

What's the cheapest site to use to check for outstanding finance on a vehicle please? Experian charge £19.99, AA the same, RAC £15.99-is there anyone cheaper?
I need to do a single check only, not multiple ones. Thanks.

Don't go cheaper, go to HPi themselves and pay for the best in the business or, if buying from a trader, don't pay at all and get a copy of their clearance.

This. Totally.

Aren't they all using the same database though? No, it's not a prospective purchase, it's a vehicle already bought privately by a relative-who didn't check it.

Cheaper checks may update less often. So anything recent may not show.

Several magazines have done checks and the AA, RAC and HPI usually come out best. Cheaper checks were found to miss cars on finance or written off.
