Mileage Check

Mileage

Mileage inconsistency: The curve of the reported odometer readings is not continuously ascending. This can be caused by an incorrect indication of the odometer readings (e.g. a clerical error), but may also be an indication of manipulation. Check the history section below thoroughly and take the average kilometers driven per year into consideration.

Carfax glossary

Model year: This term is defined by the manufacturer but it is typically the year the vehicle is built. If the model year does not appear on the CARFAX report, it is because the manufacturer did not include this information in the VIN. Model year can normally be determined by the vehicle age.

Number of records: A CARFAX record refers to a specific incidence and date in the history of the vehicle. Please note that the history of younger vehicles tends to have fewer entries. CARFAX continuously works on getting more data sources and historical information in order to enrich the report

Quick check: A snapshot of the information CARFAX has abstracted from our extensive database to determine whether a vehicle has been reported stolen, reported scrapped, publicly imported or ever used for non-personal purposes. This summary is based upon all the information supplied to CARFAX from various sources. Additional information about this vehicle, including these potential problems, may exist and may not have been reported to CARFAX.

Vehicle reference: User-provided value to identify the vehicle during the CARFAX Vehicle History Report retrieval process and to confirm vehicle identity on the report itself.

How to use this report

This history is based on data reported to us and available upon request. Gaps and errors cannot be excluded. Use CARFAX in combination with a test drive and inspection by experts. We process personal data only in accordance with applicable regulations. Conclusions on owners are not possible at any time. Read more in our Terms and conditions.
