ken_ichikawa Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 is it only an hpi type check that reveals this or is it anywhere on the V5 etc? On V5c sometimes it is stamped Cat C or D, from main dealers I've seen but this is not universal!, just stump up the £5 it costs for a HPI check. Ask them they cannot lie to you if they do you have right of refund!. For private sellers it is different though. BUT if the number plate starts with a Q avoid it like the plague.

RAC used to do them, or you do what everybody else does go onto a bikers / car forum and ask as people usually buy the 1 for £5 3 for £10 or 5 for £20 ones, the forum I am sometimes gives them away for free by people who buy the £20 for 5 types.
