Testimonials from our customers

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 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.
Bad Vin's vehicle history report showed that the 2018 Audi A4 I was about to buy had been in a major accident that was not disclosed by the seller. The severity analysis helped me avoid a bad purchase. Great service!
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.
