Is It Nicked?
Check any UK vehicle against the Police National Computer (PNC) for free. Enter the reg below and we'll open the search — find out instantly if a car is recorded as stolen.
How the Stolen Check Works
Enter the Reg
Type the UK number plate of the vehicle you want to check — it's on the front and rear of the car.
Check the PNC
isitnicked.com searches the Police National Computer — the same database used by every UK police force.
Instant Results
If the vehicle is flagged, you'll get the police force and contact details to report it. Free and instant.
Why Should You Check?
Over 100 vehicles are flagged as stolen every day in the UK. Before you buy a used car — or before we cut a key for one — a quick PNC check can save you thousands and keep you on the right side of the law.
Buying a Used Car?
A stolen flag on the PNC means the car could be seized — and you lose your money.
Need a Key Cut?
We always recommend a PNC check before cutting keys for a vehicle you've just bought.
Selling Your Car?
A clean PNC report gives buyers confidence and helps your car sell faster.
It's Completely Free
Unlike HPI checks (£20+), isitnicked.com offers PNC stolen checks at zero cost.
Also Need a VIN Lookup?
Get the full vehicle specs — make, model, engine, fuel type, colour, and VIN — from just the number plate.
