Imagine having a trusted mechanic look over a used car for you before you even drive to see it. That is exactly what MyCarMate AI does inside a Rapid Car Check report.
Instead of simply listing MOT records and ownership data, MyCarMate AI analyses official DVLA and DVSA data, Experian-backed £10,000 guaranteed finance records, insurance signals and ownership patterns to give you a mechanic-style overview of the car’s likely condition and risks.

What is an AI mechanic check?
An AI mechanic check uses pattern recognition and risk modelling to interpret vehicle history data the way an experienced mechanic would.
Instead of asking:
- Has it passed its MOT?
- Is there outstanding finance?
- How many owners has it had?
MyCarMate asks deeper questions:
- Are those MOT advisories building into a bigger issue?
- Does the mileage pattern look normal?
- Is the ownership pattern stable or risky?
- What is likely to fail next?
- What could cost you money in the next 12 months?
It turns raw history into insight, like a mechanic explaining what really matters.
What MyCarMate AI checks for you
- MyCarMate summary in plain English – a simple explanation of the car’s overall condition using all available vehicle data.
- MOT history and tax insights in plain English – not just dates and results, but what patterns suggest.
- Purchase risk score – calculated from combined finance, insurance, mileage, MOT and ownership signals.
- More accurate purchase confidence indicator – based on cross-checking multiple risk markers.
- MOT failure probability and likely issues – based on historic advisory trends.
- Reliability rating – derived from ownership patterns and data richness.
- Maintenance cost prediction for the next 12 months – helping you budget before you buy.
- Road tax change forecast – future tax implications where applicable.
- Wear and tear forecasting – based on age and mileage patterns.
- Known weak points for that make and model – what commonly fails.
- What to inspect first – based on detected risk signals.
- First 30 day ownership checklist – priorities once you own the car.
- Salvage insights – including repair feasibility commentary.
- Theft hotspot insight – linked to vehicle type and location patterns.
- Battery health forecasting for electric and hybrid vehicles – degradation modelling based on age and mileage.
- NCAP safety reporting – safety context where available.
Why this is different from a normal vehicle history check
A traditional vehicle history check tells you what happened.
MyCarMate AI tells you what it means.
For example:
- A normal report shows repeated brake advisories.
- MyCarMate explains whether that suggests likely brake system replacement soon.
- A normal report shows three owners in two years.
- MyCarMate highlights whether that pattern increases ownership risk.
- A normal report shows MOT passes.
- MyCarMate calculates the probability of failure next time.
It behaves like a mechanic reviewing the history and saying, “This is what I would check first.”

When is an AI mechanic check most valuable?
- Before travelling to view a car
- Before placing a deposit
- When buying a higher value vehicle
- When buying a car with patchy service history
- When considering salvage or previously written-off vehicles
- When buying an electric or hybrid vehicle with battery concerns
Frequently asked questions
Is MyCarMate AI a replacement for a physical mechanic inspection?
No. It acts like a remote pre-check. It tells you what risks are likely so you know what to look at when you inspect the car in person.
How accurate is the purchase risk score?
It is calculated from combined finance, insurance, MOT, mileage and ownership signals. It reflects statistical risk modelling based on verified data.
Does it check for outstanding finance and stolen markers?
Yes. Paid Rapid Car Check reports include finance and police database checks.
Can it predict future maintenance costs?
It provides probability-based maintenance forecasts for the next 12 months based on historic data trends.
Is it useful for electric vehicles?
Yes. Battery health forecasting and degradation modelling are included where data allows.
Conclusion
An AI mechanic check means you do not walk into a viewing blind. MyCarMate AI gives you insight before you invest your time or money. It works like a friendly mechanic reading the vehicle’s history and telling you what really matters.
