Our News

The MotorWeb VIR® is backed by a $100,000 Repossession Guarantee

We are delighted to announce our $100,000 Repossession Guarantee.

Should your vehicle be repossessed because it had a registered security (money owing), or is seized because it was flagged as stolen or of interest to the Police, and that information was available to us at the time but was not displayed on the VIR, we will compensate you up to $100,000, providing you meet the Terms and Conditions.

Our Past Plate Check™ uncovers hidden debts

Our Past Plate Check™ is one of the most important pre-purchase checks to ensure there's no money owing on the vehicle. Finance companies typically register outstanding money against the vehicle's registration plate. However, if the registration plates are changed, the vehicle may appear debt-free when it is not. Our Past Plate Check™ protects you from hidden debts as it checks for money owing on all previous registration plates.
