Checking a used van advert

An online advert is often the first step when searching for used vans. The information provided can help buyers decide whether a vehicle is worth exploring further.


Important details to look for

Check for details such as registration, age, mileage, model, body type, specification, photographs and available condition information.


Ask questions before buying

If buying remotely, clarify anything important to your intended use, including service information, MOT details or vehicle features.


Making an informed choice

A good advert is a starting point, but buyers should still understand the individual vehicle before purchasing.
