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!
Report showed a car I was considering had a prior salvage title from a major accident, even though carfax listed it as clean. Messaged seller asking about it and they made shady excuses. Def avoided a scam thanks to badvin!
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.
I almost bought a used Honda but luckily checked the BadVin report first. Turned out it had a salvage title from flood damage that the seller didn't disclose. Phew, dodged a huge issue!

Frequently asked questions
A 'clean title' generally indicates that the vehicle has not been significantly damaged in the past and has no history of major incidents such as salvage or theft, if such information is documented.
While a VIN decoder generally does not provide dealership information, it can tell you the region where the vehicle was originally sold.
You can educate yourself about reading and understanding window stickers by researching online resources, asking questions at dealerships, or consulting automotive buying guides that explain the elements of the label.
A window sticker provides detailed information about a vehicle's fuel economy, including city, highway, and combined mpg figures, helping buyers understand expected fuel costs.
To ensure the 1998 BMW 5 SERIES meets environmental standards, look for emissions ratings and fuel economy data on the window sticker, which indicate compliance with environmental regulations.
A VIN decoder reveals the vehicle's trim level by decoding specific characters of the VIN that relate to the vehicle's series and equipment levels.
Odometer history can show the progression of mileage and might highlight discrepancies such as rollbacks, aiding in fraud detection in the 1998 BMW vehicle’s history, if accurate records are available.
To minimize depreciation costs, consider purchasing a model known for retaining its value or opting for a slightly used vehicle that has already undergone initial depreciation.
