We verify the car
AutoSettle checks vehicles against government data sources, including state registry data and PPSR. This includes checking the VIN, the rego and all core vehicle details, as well as checking whether the vehicle is reported stolen or written off, or whether a lender’s security interest is recorded against the vehicle on the PPSR. This gives you confidence in the vehicle before proceeding with the purchase.
