BIB App

Buying a used car usually means trusting a stranger's word over hard evidence. BIB turns 289 million official UK DVSA MOT test records into plain-English intelligence on the exact car you're looking at, or the model you're still deciding on, so you know before you go. BRIEFING: CHECK A SPECIFIC CAR Got a reg plate and a viewing booked? Enter the registration and unlock 13 sections of intelligence in one report: full MOT and mileage history, reliability score, common failure areas for that exact model, the best years to buy, and questions worth asking before you view. Know what the seller knows, before you sign anything. EXPLORE: RESEARCH ANY MAKE AND MODEL Haven't picked a car yet? Browse any make and model and see year-by-year intelligence ranked by 289 million real MOT results, so you know which model year is worth targeting before you start searching listings. THE 3-YEAR TEST: FIND THE MOST RELIABLE Every UK model ranked by its first-MOT failure rate, the point where design faults show up before age or owner neglect get a look in. Filter by segment and fuel type to shortlist the genuinely dependable options, not just the ones with the best reputation. COMPARE: PUT UP TO THREE CARS SIDE BY SIDE Weighing up a shortlist? Compare the reliability records of cars you've already researched, side by side, at no extra cost. BUILT ON OFFICIAL DATA, NOT GUESSWORK Every report pulls from DVSA and DVLA records, updated daily. Where the data on a car is thin, BIB tells you so rather than filling the gap with a guess. An honest answer beats a polished one. FAIR BY DESIGN Raw MOT history is always free. One Bib costs £3 and unlocks the full intelligence report on one car, yours to re-read for good. Buy in packs and save: 5 Bibs for £12, 10 for £21. No subscription, no expiry, no auto-renewal. If BIB has no data on a car, you're not charged for it. WHY DID WE BUILD BIB? "For the buyer scrolling listings at 11pm. For the person standing in a stranger's driveway trying to make a call. For anyone decoding dealer speak in a showroom. Plain language, no jargon, no assumptions. One honest caveat: specialist and low-volume cars have less MOT data behind them, so our confidence scores reflect that. If you know your way around a car, great - but Bib will still tell you what the data says." - AJ, Founder, BIB/Superhero Panda WHO IS BIB FOR? Bib is for anyone who has ever felt out of their depth buying a car. The first-timer who doesn't know where to start. The person who's been burned before. The buyer who just wants to get it right without getting ripped off. You don't need to be a petrolhead or understand what a timing chain is - you just need to feel confident walking in, asking the right questions, and making a decision you won't regret. Even if Bib simply points you toward the areas worth digging into, that's enough. Knowledge is confidence. And confidence changes everything. Bib. Know before you go.
