OUR Car Dealer Club lawyers receive more questions about hidden history and outstanding finance than any other. Knowing a car hasn’t got any nasty skeletons in its closet is vital when you’re buying and selling so many, so often – which is why provenance checks are key.

The provenance check market is dominated by only a few firms, but that doesn’t mean they can get away with second-rate service. Our winner is a dominant force that works hard on ensuring its dealers are well looked after and that they get the right results every time. Our respondents said above all else our winner ‘cared’ about their dealers and that was clear in our results. This year’s Car Dealer Power provenance check winner is Experian.


Our highly commended winners were both praised for their ‘easy-to-use service’ and ‘fast results’. HPI and AA Car Data Check both picked up the gongs.
