Hi,

I recently became fortunate enough to call Australia my new home and am in the process of buying my first used car down under. I was advised by some of my new friends to do a REVscheck. Coming from Europe, I don’t really know what this entails. Are there any disadvantages to doing a REVscheck and what does it actually check for besides accidents? Which kind of information would I need to enter in order to do this. What if the owner of the car tries to keep me from performing such a check?

Sorry lots of stupid questions, but would appreciate some brief advice from locals here.

 

Welcome to the forums hardus77,

The best place for location-specific questions is the appropriate Region forum. The Model forums are the place for technical questions.

The link you posted lists exactly what is included in an Australian RevsCheck. We have the equivalent check system in the UK called HPI (Hire Purchase Investigation). I would NEVER buy a used vehicle without an HPI check which is usually done and paid for by the dealer.

Please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some information about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.
