VIC

Post by sp4rky »

Anyone ever had to get a vehicle identity check before? Do they just check the vin plate and see if it matches the one on the chassis? They dont actually check the car over do they?

They just check numbers.

I've taken cars still damaged in the past. As long as it goes through mot it's fine.
