In Australia it’s called a PPSR check now, and the official government search is about $2 AUD per VIN/rego, plus a tiny card surcharge. Third‑party “REVS check” sites often charge $10–$30 because they bundle the same PPSR data with prettier reports and extras. For the basics—finance encumbrance, write‑off, stolen status—the $2 PPSR certificate does the job nicely. If you like dashboards, photos and hand‑holding, pay the premium; otherwise pocket the savings for fuel and a sausage roll. Either way, get the check before buying—surprises are only fun in birthday cakes.
