What the labels mean
How trust works on Motora
Know who supplied the information and which checks you still need to make.
Seller-declared information
Vehicle details, mileage, history declarations, photographs and business details are supplied by the advertiser. A Motora Snapshot summarises those details; it is not an independent history report or a valuation. “Not provided” means the information is missing, not that a check passed.
“Private Seller” and “Motor Trader” describe the seller type. A trader profile, account or email confirmation is not proof of identity, vehicle ownership or business approval.
Platform moderation
Motora provides an owner review process for adverts and reports. Moderation can hide an advert or restrict an account, but publication does not certify a vehicle. A report is reviewed as an allegation and does not automatically remove a listing. Reporter references and internal notes are not public.
Independent checks
Motora currently does not perform independent vehicle-history, finance, stolen-vehicle, identity or mechanical checks. No “history clear”, “verified dealer”, “HPI checked” or guaranteed-vehicle status is provided. Arrange relevant checks independently and inspect the vehicle and documents before paying.
Read the Safety Centre or use Report Listing on the advert. For another concern, contact Motora.
