But hpicheck is a brand and not a standard vehicle history
check.
Is there a free hpi check for drivers?
No, they don’t offer any type of free service. Hpi provides
three paid products ranging for £9.99 necessary checks to a full car check as
£19.99. There is a multiple purchase product at £29.97 for three tests.

What do you get in each car check?
Let’s focus on the full check at £19.99 as it is the one
you’ll need if you are buying a used car. It includes finance data, write off
checks, stolen car checks and National Mileage Register (NMR) history.
These four checks make the most difference when buying. If
your hpi car check shows any issues related to these investigations, ensure you
look deeper into vehicle history as you may lose money.
Other checks carried out include number plate changes,
colour changes, mot and tax history and import or export history. These data
points are less likely to determine if the car is a good buy or not. But, they
remain essential and should be looked into should your check from hpi show up
concerns.
