SIPrior information
At the beginning of the report, we have listed VIN, model year, make and model of the vehicle and its type of fuel.
Next section given age of vehicle based on the model year or production date and date of first registration. It is worth remembering that in addition to cars produced for order, which are recorded immediately after manufacture in the dealers, there are popular engine versions and outfitting the colors are often chosen by the customer (eg. silver metallic, red, white). These cars usually waiting for the client, so the delay of 3-4 months between the date of first registration is nothing unusual. Only difference bigger than six months should rise our vigilance - dealer held car long in the square and sold it for example: only a year after the manufacture of the car or that car during transport to the deader could be damaged and it was necessary interference from tinsmith or painter. Sometimes delay maybe result from place of the production vehicle, e.g. Car manufactured in Japan and South Korea can be deliver to a dealer in Europe after several months.
Summary of the report
Summary of the report contain all the available data of the used vehicle.

Useful information
Useful information shows average mileage of vehicle in the numerical form and graphics form according to the year of production for specific type of fuel (diesel or petrol).
These data are presented on the basis of the statement of similar vehicles of that type in the autoDNA database and should be treated as image numbers. If we are interested in the car which has much less odometer reading, than would appear from autoDNA database, it probably has odometer rollback.
Average mileage is given in a graphic form for specific engine type. That enables you to compare the differences in the odometer (reported on an annual basis)
Values included in this section are reference values and are approximate values.
