Testimonials from our customers
After a bad experience buying a used car that turned out to have major issues, I now use Bad VIN to thoroughly check every vehicle i consider. It costs a bit more than other services but the detailed records and photos of past sales are wotrh it for the added peace of mind.

Was shopping for a used Range Rover and found one that seemed suspiciously cheap. The badVIN report revealed it had been in a major front end collision, with photos showing the damage. Steered clear of that one and saved myself a ton of headaches!!

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.

Purchased a badvin report before buying a used Lexus RX 350. It revealed a minor accident the seller hadn't mentioned. I still bought the car but used the info to negotiate a lower price. Well worth the cost for the leverage it gave me!

Frequently asked questions
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.
Regularly checking your vehicle's VIN for updated information, such as recall or service updates, is advisable, especially after announcements of new safety issues.
A CPO vehicle offers the reliability of a new car at a lower price, backed by a comprehensive warranty, making it a great option for those seeking value and peace of mind.
Damage severity, if reported, is classified as minor, moderate, or severe, and may provide insights into the extent of damage the 1998 BMW vehicle has sustained.
Technology plays a significant role in the depreciation of vehicles, as models with outdated tech depreciate faster due to lower consumer demand for older features.
A VIN alone does not typically provide fuel economy details directly; however, it can identify the vehicle model and engine type, which you can cross-reference with fuel economy data from other sources.
A lemon title, if issued, indicates repeated, unfixable issues, significantly affecting the usability and resale value of the 1998 BMW 5 SERIES, if such a title is applied.
The average depreciation rate for vehicles over five years can vary, but many models experience a significant portion of their depreciation within the first few years of ownership.
New vehicles often depreciate quickly due to rapid advancements in technology and consumer preference for the latest features, which make older models less desirable.
To find the correct VIN, check multiple locations where it is typically displayed, such as the dashboard, driver's door jamb, and vehicle registration documents, ensuring all instances match exactly.
