What Spec Is My Car?

Not sure what spec your car is? Enter the reg to preview the model and basics free, then get the full specification where data is available.

Finding the model and spec from the reg

Enter the plate and we show the make, model, colour, year, fuel type and engine size we can match. That alone answers "what model is my car" for most people. The full report goes further into engine, outputs and standard equipment.

Where else to look

The V5C logbook

Shows make, model, colour, engine size and fuel. It does not usually list trim features or power figures.

Badges and the service book

Rear badges and the service book can hint at the trim, but badges get swapped and books go missing.

The free gov.uk check

Good for tax, MOT, colour and engine size. No power, torque or features.

What the full report can add

Where available: power and torque, performance, economy, dimensions and the standard features for the derivative we match. Optional extras may not be listed for every car.

Questions

Can I find out what model my car is from the reg?

Yes. The free preview shows the make and model we can match.

Will it tell me the exact trim?

We match the derivative where data allows. Some cars may only match to a model range, and we tell you before you pay.
