DONT DO IT.

Total rip off.

That program only tells you info about the car that has be notified to them. a lot of the time, incidients are not reported making the info faulse. Their was a huge story made about these companies.

ex: their was a guy who bought a truck that had a clean record. Then after owning for 5 years, a report came out about the vehicle from 10 years before. It said it was written off in a major accident. So when he purchesed it, he had no idea about this.

All i can say is take it too a very good machanic to do a complete inspection. around the same price.
