Stolen Vehicle Database
Additional Information
Stolen Vehicle Database
The Police National Computer (PNC) is updated by the police each time a vehicle is reported stolen. If you check a vehicle which appears on this database, we are obliged to inform the Police. Our Service Support Team will then contact you with any further information available.
Do not consider proceeding with the purchase until you have received written confirmation from our Service Support Team that it has been recovered. If you buy a stolen vehicle it remains the property of the true owner or their insurance company who can repossess it.
Cloned Or Ringed Vehicles
A "clone" or "ringer" is a vehicle which has been stolen and has been given a false registration number and VIN. If this has happened, the data supplied will be for a different, but identical, vehicle. A clone or ringer is not covered by AutoCheck Insurance.
The data supplied will not identify this situation but you can reduce the risk of buying a clone if you follow our Buying Advice.
