Testimonials from our customers

I've tried a bunch of different vehicle history reports over the years and badvin.org has been the most comprehensive by far. Stuff like service records, ownership history, lien and repo info that I haven't found elsewhere. Def go-to resource when shopping for used vehicles now.
Can't believe what badvin found on a used 2012 chevy silverado I almost bought - odometer had been rolled back 50k miles according to the mileage history! Carfax didnt show nething bout that. So glad I checked here first b4 handing over my hard earned $$
I almost bought a 2019 Malibu that seemed like a great deal - low miles and price. But the badvin report showed it used to be a rental fleet vehicle, which the seller didn't disclose. Glad I found out before buying someone else's abused rental!
I've tried many vehicle reports but badvin's is by far the most comprehensive. It shows accident photos, past sales, repairs and so much more. I won't buy a car now without getting a report first. It's a must-have.
