A VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a unique 17-character code assigned to every vehicle when it is manufactured. It never changes and is used to look up a car's full history.

How much does a Motivo report cost?

A single vehicle history report costs ₦2,500. Dealers can subscribe monthly for bulk lookups starting at ₦45,000 per month.

Where do I find a car's VIN?

You can find the VIN on the car's dashboard (visible through the windscreen on the driver's side), inside the driver's door jamb, on the engine bay, or on the vehicle's papers. It is always 17 characters long.
