How VehicleScore rebuilds a vehicle’s service history
Service records are scattered across dealer management systems, independent garages, and sometimes spreadsheets. We query each relevant source and normalise the data so that you see one neat journey from pre-delivery inspection to the latest visit.
Step-by-step overview
- Enter the registration (and VIN if you have it for faster matching).
- We contact franchised dealers, OEM databases, and major independent groups.
- Each returned record is validated against MOT mileage to ensure the timeline is logical.
- You receive a live dashboard plus optional PDF export. If data is pending we show the timer and refresh automatically.
- When everything is complete you can share the link or print the PDF ready for test drives.
How to use the report when buying
Cross-reference large jobs (timing belt, DSG servicing, battery coolant changes) with the seller’s receipts. If something is missing you have leverage to reduce the price or insist the work is completed before collection.
How sellers can benefit
Attaching a VehicleScore history to your advert on marketplaces instantly differentiates your listing. Buyers love transparency, and it removes the hassle of emailing photos of service books back and forth.
Works alongside other checks
