Your HPI Check guarantee will not be valid if the descriptive data does not match the physical vehicle and or the Vehicle log book (V5).

 

Bloody hell. had decided to buy and get insurance sorted. First do HPi check. 

I know I can ask the dealer what it means and I know we can "walk away" but is it a concern?
Was the original plate removed for a personalised one and then the original plate was reinstated. I thought they just put a similar one from that year back on?

If we buy and don't correct with HPI presumably when we come to sell buyers will be put off as HPI will still show this alert?

Why hasn't the dealer updated the issues when he did the HPi check?

Sounds like the private plate that was on the vehicle was put on the other car then someone didn't pay the hp company, it will still show against the car you are buying history,if the dealer is above board it should be easily sorted,pm joshwyatt as he will know how to sort this.

Best avoided by the sound of it... Just shows why you need to carry out thorough checks... Outstanding finance is worse than a VIC marker IMHO... If only because you can lose the car over it :-\
