Imakes things easier no need to go to molestation

★★★★★ Fábio Sequeira · Nov 11, 2019

Really helpful discovering what car and which engine it has. Keep it up!

★★★★★ Krocodilo · Mar 4, 2020

It worked with all the license plates I tried. Even the common cars.

★★★★☆ Álvaro Peralta Romera · Aug 23, 2023

Very accurate, but as a suggestion, they could add that when you tap in the car's model, is copied to the clipboard.

★★☆☆☆ jakey Douglas · Jun 12, 2023

When I do the Spanish number plates it keeps saying this The vehicle with the registration plates was not found. This can be due to: * the registration plate doesn't exist, * the car is too recent, * the owner choose the privacy option when registering the car. When I did the France and the Netherlands number plates thay worked but not the Spanish one so please fix that bug thanks JD

5 months passed and no new car as been added to Portugal. New license plates have a success rate of 1%. If you need to know what car is stick with the autodoc parts app or website.

★☆☆☆☆ Vítor Moura · Feb 28, 2022

Doesn't work in dark mode and doesn't work for any of the cars I tried in Portugal. Useless
