    Cheap/straightforward/recommended HPI checks?

    Hi gang, Was just wondering if anyone had a recommendation for an inexpensive HPI service. Basically to look into a vehicle - apparently recorded on HPI as a cat-C - but not recorded on V5 log book? I'm wondering if the log book was not surrendered after it was paid out for and hence...

    VIC checks

    There is an article about the VIC check being a waste of taxpayers money as only 38 ringers have been found, but the other school of thought says it is a success because as a result of having VIC checks there are very few ringers in circulation. Cloned car scheme wastes millions | Auto Express

    HPI checks

    Just to say it's a very good idea to HPI a car before travelling to see it. I HPI'd a relatively local car the other day and its was recorded Cat C and Cat D in two separate incidents two years apart! If it had been Stolen & Recovered as well it would have been a kind of automotive Hat Trick...
