Cars that were previously used by taxi companies or were rental vehicles can appear as lots at international auctions. And quite often sellers try to hide the fact that the vehicle was used in that way. Considering the nuances of rental vehicle conditions or any cars that are used for frequent transportation, checking a car by VIN code for taxi service is crucially important. Before participating in the auction, we recommend ordering a full car information report from Carfax. Our service has access to the biggest vehicle databases and will provide you with detailed data on vehicles registered in America or Canada. For a reasonable price, Carfax will send you a comprehensive vehicle report based on your car’s VID.

Why is it important to know a car's taxi service history?

Among the numbers of auction lots there are some cars that were previously used as a taxi or in similar services. These vehicles have several peculiarities, so checking the car's taxi history can be crucial and potentially money saving. Issues that ex-taxi cars can have are:

  • They were used extremely often, which negatively affects their technical condition;
  • Rental cars sometimes are used by unskillful drivers and can often get into road accidents, which can lead to more frequent car mechanisms malfunction;
  • Possible dubious reputation of the fleet owner or private taxi driver, which can lead to further legal problems for the car’s new owner;
  • Lack of attention to the signs of vehicle’s technical issues and no regular maintenance as often as it should be with such a high amount of wear and tear.

And it’s only a tip of an iceberg of all the possible problems that can happen when you decide to buy such cars. Therefore, it is important to check the car's VIN before bidding on a particular lot.
