Each jam-packed comprehensive report will provide you with a complete background check on the exact car you are about to buy, including a REVS check, valuation, recall information, road tests if available, common faults and useful advice to avoid the pitfalls. We’ll then take you through the next steps once you have made the purchase. Know what you’re buying.
What’s included in the Report?
An NRMA CarWise Report will give you vital information about:
- A REVS check telling you if there is any finance owing on the car
- A REVS check telling you if the car is stolen or written off
- A car valuation telling you what your chosen car is really worth
- An NRMA checklist of the car’s common faults and defects
- The most recent data on recalls for that make, model and year
- An NRMA road test report (if available for that model)
- Car specifications
- The next steps in what to do after you have purchased the car
What do I need to get an NRMA CarWise Report?
To get an NRMA CarWise Report for a specific car, you just need the VIN, Engine Number and Registration number – and away you go!
Why should I get a Report?
Without a comprehensive background check, you’ll be buying a used car and possibly someone else’s problem. An NRMA CarWise Report will run a report for you on the exact car you are buying. Within minutes you will be able to see whether it’s money down the drain or not.
If the owner has a secured loan against the car you are purchasing, the car still belongs to the finance company, not you. Or if the car has undergone a re-birth, you’ll end up without a car and the remaining car loan still to pay off - even though it wasn’t your fault!
An NRMA CarWise Report also provides a detailed valuation and common faults on that type of car, plus any manufacturer recalls and details on when and why.
Simply checking the registration papers against the vehicle identification plates is not enough to protect you. Download the FREE NRMA CarWise Buyer’s Checklist for more information.
