Indeed, it could be a signifies that the seller is untrustworthy, or that they may have been using an invalid vehicle for many years.

Aside from make, model, color  year of registration and transmission, car owners who invest in a check like this will also gain a wealth of information about engine capacities, color changes, imports, scraps, insurance export history, and the country of origin.

They will also be able to tally the all important VIN/Chassis ID with that on the car as well as the identification on the number plates. Any changes will show up and can point to possible foul play.
