Verified review

In general, the app is good. A bit pricey, but it's worth it. You'd better pay €30 once than invest hundreds or thousands in a car that has seen a lot. It helped me find what I wanted, while avoiding the damaged cars with fake mileage!

Verified review

Great, everything is OK. Thanks to carVertical report, I avoided buying a car with 63,000 km declared on the odometer instead of the 218.000 it actually had. Very helpful.
