DoneDeal Cars has launched a free history check on cars listed by trusted dealers on its website, giving buyers access to key vehicle information upfront at no extra cost, writes Brian Byrne.

The new feature allows buyers to download a free history report directly from eligible listings from all trusted dealers, with the report emailed straight to them.

The report includes essential information such as import status and country of origin, A and B write-off history, number and dates of previous owners, NCT and tax details, mileage history, any UK history for imported vehicles, whether the car now has an Irish registration, and more.
