Chassis Check (Variants)
Chassis Check
Is a product that provides a moderate level of information about a vehicle but excludes WoF and registration information (see BVI).
This report is ideal for confirming what the vehicle is and is often used by customers in their plate look up service.
The core chassis check report is available via the MotorWeb Portal and via API, however there are other variants of the report available only by API that are detailed below.
Portal Example
A view of the portal version of the report is as follows:

Chassis Check + RedBook
This API product extends on the core Chassis Check product by including additional information such as:
latest odometer reading
Redbook code(s) and information
Please note that where possible MotorWeb will seek to provide only one Redbook code, however in some situations more than one code is returned.
An example of the XML payload from the API is as follows:
