Testimonials from our customers

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.
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!
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!
As a first time used car buyer, I was nervous about getting ripped off. The vehicle report from badvin gave me so much more confidence - it confirmed the car had a clean history and the mileage lined up. Such a relief to have that peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions
A vehicle history report provides past data and records but cannot assess the current physical condition of a vehicle, underscoring the need for an independent inspection before purchase.
A potential buyer can use a VIN decoder to verify the features of a used car by confirming the model, trim level, and installed options, ensuring the features match those advertised.
Dismantled status, if noted, shows the vehicle has been taken apart for parts or salvage, significantly impacting the 2005 SAAB's value and functionality.
While a VIN decoder generally does not provide dealership information, it can tell you the region where the vehicle was originally sold.
Depreciation directly affects the resale value of a 2005 SAAB 9-3, with faster depreciating vehicles typically having lower resale values over time.
If available, auction photos may be included in our reports, providing a glimpse into the 2005 SAAB vehicle’s condition and appearance at the time of sale.
These records, if available, show if the 2005 SAAB has been reported stolen or recovered, impacting its legal status and potential purchase risk.
New vehicles often depreciate quickly due to rapid advancements in technology and consumer preference for the latest features, which make older models less desirable.
