Check before you buy — for this car

  1. On this carBrakes. advisory recorded in the last two years (2023, 2026). Worth looking at the discs and pads through the wheel spokes for scoring and a worn lip, and noticing on a test drive whether the car pulls to one side or the pedal feels long.
  2. On this carSuspension & steering. major item, advisory recorded in the last two years (2023, 2025, 2026). Worth looking behind each wheel with a torch at the coil springs and bushes, and listening for knocks over bumps on a test drive.
  3. On this carTyres. advisory recorded in the last two years (2020, 2021, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026). Worth checking the tread depth across the whole width of each tyre, and the sidewalls for cuts, cracks and bulges.
  4. On this carStructure & corrosion. major item recorded in the last two years (2026). Worth looking underneath with a torch at the sills, floor and mountings for corrosion.
  5. On this carEngine – oil. advisory recorded in the last two years (2026). Worth looking under the car and around the engine for fresh oil, and asking when it was last serviced.
  6. Nothing recentLamps & visibility. A top failure area for 2016 500xs. Recorded on this car in 2020, 2023, nothing in the last two years. Worth asking someone to watch while you work every lamp and indicator, and checking the wipers clear the screen cleanly.

About this page

This is the public record for one vehicle, drawn from two free government sources: DVLA (loaded when someone presses "Check latest from DVLA & DVSA") for the registration — make, year, colour, fuel, emissions, tax and MOT status — and DVSA for every MOT result and mileage reading since 2005. Nothing here costs anything, and nothing here identifies the keeper.

What it cannot tell you is the commercial history: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs and stolen markers. Those come from Experian and are not public. They are the difference between a car you can drive and a car you can lose — see SortedCars Reports, or read the longer guide on the free car check.

The DVLA and DVSA data on this page contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. SortedCars is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, the DVLA or DVSA.

This page shows vehicle information only — no keeper details and no vehicle identification number. Built on 6 October 2026 from the DVSA bulk MOT record as of 27 September 2026; DVLA fields load when someone presses "Check latest from DVLA & DVSA".
