FinalBid / VIN CHECK / Dortmund
VIN check in Dortmund, Germany
Looking at a used car in Dortmund? Before you hand over the money, check what the VIN says. Cars sold in Germany are routinely bought damaged at US and Canadian auctions, shipped over and repaired — and the auction photos show the state that car was really in, whatever the seller in Dortmund is telling you.
VIN history beyond the auction

Title brands, accident reports and odometer entries: the VIN history behind any auction lot.

What to check before you pay
- 01Odometer — a car exported with 180,000 miles can be advertised here with 90,000. The auction record shows the reading on sale day.
- 02Accident damage — repaired panels hide what the auction photos show: which side took the hit, whether the airbags fired, how deep it went.
- 03Title brand — salvage, flood and total-loss records do not always survive re-registration in a new country. The VIN does.

Auction archive FAQ
Where do I find the VIN on a car in Dortmund?
On the windscreen at the base of the glass, on the driver-side door pillar, and on the registration document. Check that all three match before anything else — a mismatch ends the viewing.
Is this useful for a private sale in Dortmund?
Especially there. A dealer may hold some paperwork; a private seller usually offers only their word. The VIN record does not depend on either.
What does the check cost?
Searching the auction archive for a VIN is free. The full history report — accidents, ownership, odometer readings and title brands — is a one-off paid report, no subscription.
