SUMMARY

The vehicle, its VIN, and six headline checks — odometer, open recalls, accidents, mileage, sales history and owner count — each with a count of what was found.

Ownership History

OWNERSHIP

Each owner in turn with estimated miles per year, last reported reading, year of purchase and how long they held it — flagging where the mileage stops making sense.

Vehicle Details

SPECS

Twenty-one decoded fields — engine, drivetrain, dimensions, tyres, economy — down to original invoice price and MSRP.

Odometer Check

MILEAGE

Ten NMVTIS odometer conditions, a mileage-over-time chart marking every reading that fell, and the full record list behind it.

Open Safety Recall Check

RECALL

Outstanding manufacturer recalls with the NHTSA campaign number, the date it was issued and the defect described in full.

Junk / Salvage / Insurance

SALVAGE

Every salvage yard and insurer that has reported the vehicle, with the date obtained, the record type, its disposition and whether it was intended for export.

Title History

TITLE

The current title alongside every historical one — issue date, state and the mileage recorded at each — plus a theft check against stolen-vehicle records.

Major Title Brand Check

BRANDS

The seven brands that matter most — fire, hail and flood, manufacturer buyback, junk, salvage, rebuilt and export-only — each dated where reported.

Other Title Brands

OTHER

Thirty-eight further brands checked, from salt water damage and vandalism to prior taxi, police and rental use, reissued VINs and gray-market compliance.

Vehicle Damages

DAMAGE

Reported impacts plotted onto the vehicle and listed by date, with the damage type recorded against each — front end, partial repair, dents and scratches.

Sales History

SALES

Every time the car was listed — auction and classified — with asking price, odometer, location, full specification, equipment list and the seller's own photographs.

Market Price Analysis

MARKET

What a dealer would ask and what a dealer would pay, with price plotted against both year and mileage — and every recorded price change since.

Ownership Cost

COST

Five years projected out — depreciation, insurance, fuel, maintenance, repair and taxes — year by year and totalled.

A complete vehicle report

Every section comes from a real EpicVIN report — a 2012 Bentley Continental GT with four owners, three suspected odometer rollbacks and eight recorded impacts.
