DriverVIN is an online platform dedicated to publishing real auction vehicle information from the United States. We collect, organize, and preserve data from major American auto auctions to help buyers understand the true history of used vehicles.
Our goal is to increase transparency in the used car market by providing access to original auction photos and vehicle records that are often difficult to find after a car is resold.
What we do
DriverVIN gathers information from leading U.S. auto auctions such as Copart, IAAI, Manheim, and other industry sources. We focus on preserving visual auction history and making it searchable by VIN.
On DriverVIN, users can:
-
Search vehicles by VIN
-
View original auction photos
-
Identify previous auction listings
-
Understand the condition of a vehicle at the time of sale
We do not modify or edit auction images. All photos are published to reflect the vehicle’s real condition as it appeared at the auction.
Why we created DriverVIN
Many vehicles sold at American auctions are later repaired and resold in other markets. In the process, important details about past damage, title status, or auction history may be lost or intentionally hidden.
DriverVIN was created to solve this problem. By collecting auction data and preserving original images, we help buyers verify vehicle history and avoid unpleasant surprises after purchase.
Our platform allows users to compare how a vehicle looked before repairs and how it appears today.
Our data sources
We collect publicly available auction data and vehicle images from U.S. auto auctions and related automotive sources. This information is processed, structured, and indexed to make VIN searches fast and convenient.
DriverVIN does not participate in vehicle sales and is not affiliated with sellers or dealers. Our role is to provide information only, allowing users to make independent and informed decisions.
Transparency and trust
Transparency is the foundation of DriverVIN. We believe that access to accurate vehicle history helps protect buyers and raises standards across the automotive industry.
By publishing real auction photos and historical records, DriverVIN supports honest transactions and reduces the risk of fraud in the used car market.
