VIN check in Kenya

Buying a used car in Kenya? A large share of the cars on sale here were bought damaged at a US or Canadian auction, shipped over, repaired and put back on the market. Enter the VIN to see the photos taken the day that car crossed the auction block — the damage, the odometer reading and the title brand recorded then, before anyone repainted anything.

Check any car in Kenya before you buy

Reported accidents, odometer rollbacks, title brands and past owners — get the full history report for any VIN.

Frequently asked questions

Take the VIN from the windscreen, the door pillar or the registration document and run it here. If the car passed through a US or Canadian auction you get its photos, recorded damage, odometer reading and final bid.

Yes — if it was sold at auction, the listing photos and the recorded damage type are in the archive, regardless of what the car looks like today in Kenya.

Then that car has no US or Canadian auction record we hold, which is itself useful to know. The full history report also covers accidents, ownership and odometer readings reported outside the auction lanes.
