What you get
Example — from a real report
Descriptions use KIA's factory terminology. A typical report lists 60–150 codes.
Use cases
Buying a used KIA
Verify the spec in the advert against the factory record — original paint, factory options, and whether the advertised package is genuine.
Selling with confidence
A documented factory spec supports your asking price — desirable factory options are worth showing, not claiming.
Restoration & parts
Order the right parts first time and return a project car to its exact original specification, down to the trim code.
Insurance & valuation
Agreed-value policies and specialist valuations often ask for proof of factory options — the build sheet is that proof.
Frequently asked
Which KIA models are covered?
Factory build data is available for Picanto, Ceed, Sportage, Sorento and EV6, among others. Coverage varies by model year and delivery market — the free preview confirms availability for your exact VIN before you pay.
Can it verify a GT or GT-Line specification?
Yes — trim and performance equipment are part of the factory record. The build sheet confirms whether GT or GT-Line specification was fitted at build, along with the original paint and interior codes.
How are KIA option codes formatted?
Each factory-fitted option is recorded against your VIN as a short code with KIA's own description. The build sheet lists them all, including packages and market-specific equipment.
Do I need the VIN, or will the UK reg work?
Either works. For UK-registered cars the reg is enough — we resolve the VIN automatically. For imports or unregistered vehicles, use the 17-character VIN.
Is service history available for KIA?
Not currently — the Service History add-on covers selected manufacturers only. For KIA, the Factory Specification PDF is available on its own. See pricing for details.
Where does the data come from?
Directly from official manufacturer build records, keyed to your VIN — the same data a franchised KIA dealer sees. It can't be edited by a seller and doesn't rely on paperwork surviving.
