Testimonials from our customers

Was about to buy a used 2016 Camry but decided to get the badvin report first. Turns out the car had been in a serious crash and was declared a total loss by insurance, even tho carfax showed it as clean! Dodged a bullet on that one. ty badvin
As a car dealer importing vehicles from the US to Mexico, I rely on badvin for comprehensive history reports before bidding at auctions. Their info has helped me avoid several salvage vehicles and is more thorough than carfax. A must-have service!
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.
As a used car dealer, I rely on badvin.org for checking every vehicle I'm considering purchasing at auction. The comprehensive reports give me peace of mind and help me avoid problem cars. Photos of past sales have saved me from overpaying many times. Worth every penny!
Frequently asked questions
Economic downturns can lead to decreased demand and lower resale values for vehicles, as buyers may defer purchasing vehicles or opt for less expensive alternatives.
The manufacturing location can be interpreted from the first character of the VIN, which indicates the country of assembly, and sometimes more specific location details are included in the first few characters.
A VIN decoder can reveal engine details such as the engine size, configuration, and fuel type, which are encoded in specific characters of the VIN.
Total loss is usually determined when the cost of repairing the vehicle exceeds a certain percentage of its value before the damage occurred, as decided by the insurance company, if such data is recorded.
Most VIN decoders do not provide color information as this is not typically encoded in the VIN; color information is usually obtained from vehicle registration documents or manufacturer records.
A used car might not have a window sticker because it is only legally required on new vehicles; once the vehicle is sold initially, the label might be removed or lost.
The best time of year to sell your car to minimize depreciation might be just before the release of a new model, when demand for used models could be higher.
Clunker repair records, if available, detail repairs under cash-for-clunkers programs, indicating major overhauls or updates to the 2003 VOLKSWAGEN vehicle.
Safety ratings, if available, provide information from crash tests and safety evaluations, which can help assess the 2003 VOLKSWAGEN vehicle's protection level in accidents.
The window sticker is particularly important for electric and hybrid 2003 VOLKSWAGEN vehicles as it provides detailed information on battery range, charging times, and energy consumption.
