Testimonials from our customers
As a broke college kid I almost settled for a sketchy 2005 Altima cuz it was cheap. but splurged on the report from badvin 1st. soooo glad I did - turned out it had been totalled and rebuilt. spending a little saved me from wasting $1000s!

I import used luxury cars from US auctions to resell in Russia. The vehicle history reports from badVIN are essential for avoiding problem cars. For a BMW I was bidding on, it uncovered a salvage title from flood damage that other reports missed! That alone pays for the service.

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!

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
