I would highly recommend.
“I can't thank HPI check enough, they sorted everything out for me. The staff are all so polite and helpful. Thanks so much for all your help.”
Mrs Helen Gill
Saved me money and a long journey
“Saw the car I wanted, checked the car through your website, and how relieved I was that I did check its history. It was an insurance write-off, and the mileage was incorrect. Saved me from a very bad situation, and having a conman making my life a misery. Money well spent. Thanks”
Mr Neil Murphy
Comprehensive, quick and reassuringly helpful.
“I just needed a bit of reassurance that the car I was buying was indeed what it said in the ad. Initially the report I had back from HPI said there was HP outstanding but by following the advice and calling the finance company, I was pleased that this had indeed been cleared.”
Chris Guscott
Excellent service, would highly recommend.
