Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about buying and selling on Motorproof.
For buyers
Every vehicle listed on Motorproof is checked against official DVLA records before it goes live. This confirms the registration, make, model, year, fuel type, MOT status, and tax status are accurate. No unverified listings are ever published.
Yes. Browsing, searching, filtering, and contacting sellers is completely free for buyers. You do not need an account to browse, but creating a free account lets you save vehicles and track your enquiries.
On any listing page, sign in and use the Motorproof enquiry form to message the seller privately - neither party’s email address is shared. Dealers also show their business phone number on their listings, and some private sellers add a "Call" button that connects you directly without showing their number as text.

For private sellers
