London, United Kingdom Sep 29, 2019 (Issuewire.com) - When buying a vehicle, knowledge is indeed power. Unfortunately, the vast majority of car dealers in the U.K. make no effort to uncover a vehicle’s real licensing history, hoping to charge more for the car than it’s worth. Stepping up to help is Vehicle Ancestry, an exclusive platform providing a search engine that allows users to search registry records that can show if a car used to be a taxi or private hire vehicle. This information is something that a provenance provider, such as HPI or Experian, can’t provide. These crucial details can affect the price of the vehicle or can even prevent the car shopper from making an offer at all.
“Having access to Vehicle Ancestry is a must when car shopping here in the UK. Approx 300,000 taxis are licensed every year, which equates to 6000 per week, over 1000 per day!"
Commented a spokesperson from the company. “This information can knock up to a fifth off the value of a car; that’s why sellers may not be open and honest.”
According to Vehicle Ancestry, the company’s exclusive database contains millions of licensing records collected from over 350 licensing councils across England, Scotland and Wales and is constantly being updated with new cars that enter the marketplace. If the vehicle matches up with the register, then the motor industry will realign their valuation by up to 20%, that’s £4,000 on a £20,000 car which is a massive saving to the consumer & a significant profit margin for the dealer.
User reviews have been incredibly positive.
Alex, from Solihull, recently said in a five-star review, “VehicleAncestry.co.uk helped me discover that the used Mercedes E-Class I was about to purchase used to be a licensed taxi. The dealer didn’t even know – Thanks!”
