Inspector callout for HGVs
HGV pre-purchase inspections include plated-weight verification, an operator-side check that the chassis is not still recorded against a previous O-Licence and a brake test reading from a DVSA-recognised testing station.

The downloadable PDF is one page of summary at the top, followed by the underlying detail for every flag. It's structured to be shareable with an insurance broker, a finance settlement team or a solicitor in a deposit-dispute case without further explanation needed.
If the report shows nothing of concern, ask to see the V5C in person and compare the VIN on the document to the one stamped on the chassis and printed on the dash. If the report flags something, raise it directly: a Category N write-off is not necessarily a deal-breaker, but a seller who claims a car has no history when MIAFTR shows otherwise is telling you something important about the rest of the conversation.
/ Brand consolidation
motoranalyst.com is now part of Expert Car Check — the consolidated UK vehicle-data platform that several of these older brands have joined. The data sources are unchanged: DVLA's vehicle record, DVSA's MOT history, MIAFTR for write-offs, the Police National Computer feed for theft markers and the UK lender register for outstanding finance. The team, the underwriting partners and the support contact are the same. What's changed is that the work that was previously spread across several smaller brands now sits in one place, which keeps response times tight and the underlying registers maintained against current DVLA schemas. Bookmarks and historic links to motoranalyst.com continue to resolve here. If you were referred to motoranalyst.com by a previous report, broker or print listing, this is the right page — there is no further redirect to chase.
