It’s been a year since I knew Vinaudit when one of my car
addict friends has tried getting vehicle history reports. I was a big Carfax
fan. Even though I heard a lot of rumors about Carfax so-called scams, I still
believe in them and I was actually watching every night for their new coupons
releases. Honestly, the price is quiet expensive but I still like them as I
assume their records are very accurate. Nothing is perfect so I understand that
even Carfax isn’t a 100% reliable and I just decided to try other resources and
free VIN decoders and this is where Vinaudit came in.
Carfax gives just reports what have sent to them after
purchasing. But, getting a single full vehicle history report for $40 isn’t an
ideal price if you are on a tight budget. My friend has come over the NMVTIS
website and has tried a discount coupon from one of its partners. He compared
both reports from Carfax and VInaudit and found out that there were some
records that don’t coincide with each other. He did vehicle history reports
comparison on 5 cars so he can be more assured that he’s not getting ripped off
and showed it to me. Though there are some discrepancies found on either one of
the reports, most of the records were parallel. Getting a Vinaudit report is
good but it is way better if you compare it with reports from Carfax or Autocheck.
Don’t just rely with a single source. Vinaudit is just a partner of a few US
government authorities especially NMVTIS so I believe they only show reports
that were just reported to them like Carfax.
Vinaudit offered full vehicle history reports for only
$4.99.I know you can find other discount coupons circling around online but
this one is the latest coupon I found and used: Vinaudit Discount Coupon - $4.99
This is one thing why I like Vinaudit because their
coupon works for a year or more unlike Carfax. I haven’t used coupons other
than this so I don’t know if they still work.

Sources are only few but Carfax don’t have them so this makes another reason to
get Vinaudit vehicle history reports. Some considered it as Carfax Report
Alternative but as for me, it could be smarter if you don’t rely only on one
report to help you out of making a wiser decision and avoid scams. Check out
