Found a vehicle on autoland.de and not sure whether the listing includes all the important details? Paste the autoland link into InseratCheck – we automatically analyse the listing for missing MOT/roadworthiness test (HU) details, accident indications, import labelling and more. Free.
Why a second look pays off – even with a dealer
autoland.de is a platform for professional car dealers. That means: as a buyer, you automatically have statutory warranty rights – the dealer must be liable to you for defects for at least one year. That's an important protection that doesn't apply to private sales.
Even so, when buying from a dealer there's information in the listing you should know about: missing MOT/roadworthiness test (HU) details, an unclear accident history, imported vehicles or gaps in the maintenance records. InseratCheck helps you ask exactly the right questions – before you drive to the dealer.
What InseratCheck checks in autoland listings
InseratCheck checks these risk factors in dealer listings too:
Missing or expiring MOT/roadworthiness test (HU)
The HU (MOT/roadworthiness test) is an important detail even when buying from a dealer. If it's missing or expires soon, you should bring it up before buying. InseratCheck checks whether HU details are given and whether the test expires soon.
Gaps in the service history
With a dealer, too, the maintenance history should be fully documented. InseratCheck detects when the listing text says nothing about a service book. If a service date is explicitly mentioned in the text, we detect that as well and point it out.
Accident indications in the listing text
A reputable dealer discloses accident damage openly. InseratCheck detects terms like “Unfallschaden” (accident damage), “beschädigt” (damaged) or “Unfallfahrzeug” (accident vehicle) directly in the listing text – and flags them so you can ask targeted questions.
Imported vehicles without clear labelling
Dealers sell imported vehicles too – from Poland, the Czech Republic, the USA or other countries. InseratCheck detects indications of imported vehicles, US re-imports and export vehicles in the listing text.
Known defects in the description
InseratCheck detects conspicuous wording in the listing text – for example references to known defects such as “Motorschaden” (engine damage), “Getriebeschaden” (gearbox damage), “Hagelschaden” (hail damage) or missing information about the service book.
A concrete example: what an incomplete dealer listing looks like
autoland listing: Mercedes C-Class, built 2019, 67,000 km, €28,900. Offered by a dealer.
InseratCheck analyses the link and finds:
- No service book mentioned in the listing text – InseratCheck asks specifically for proof of servicing
- MOT/roadworthiness test (HU) details missing from the text
- Vehicle identified as an import – origin and previous maintenance unclear
InseratCheck result: Medium risk. Before visiting the dealer, you should specifically request copies of the service book, the HU (MOT/roadworthiness test) report and information on the vehicle's origin.
What InseratCheck detects in autoland listings
InseratCheck automatically analyses the listing and evaluates more than 30 risk factors:
- Missing or soon-expiring MOT/roadworthiness test (HU)
- Missing service book details; if a service date is mentioned in the text, we check whether it was more than 12 months ago
- Accident indications in the listing text (e.g. “Unfallschaden” (accident damage), “beschädigt” (damaged), “Unfallfahrzeug” (accident vehicle))
- Imported vehicles, US re-imports, export vehicles
- Known defects such as engine damage, gearbox damage, hail damage
- Missing basic details such as mileage or MOT/roadworthiness test (HU)
The result: a score of up to 100 points with concrete pointers – so you know what to clarify before visiting the dealer.

Why InseratCheck makes sense even when buying from a dealer
When buying from a dealer, you have statutory warranty rights – an important advantage over a private sale. But even with a dealer, it's worth checking the listing beforehand. The better prepared you are for the dealer appointment, the more targeted your questions can be – and the harder it becomes to withhold information.
InseratCheck helps you spot gaps in the listing and go into the dealer appointment with the right questions.
Frequently asked questions about checking autoland listings
How do I analyse an autoland listing with InseratCheck?
Copy the link of the listing on autoland.de and paste it on inseratcheck.de. The analysis starts automatically – you get a result in seconds.
Don't I have a warranty anyway when buying from a dealer?
Yes – as a private buyer, you have at least 1 year of statutory warranty when buying from a commercial dealer. That's an important protection. InseratCheck still helps you: the tool shows you which details are missing or conspicuous in the listing – so you can ask targeted questions before buying and avoid nasty surprises.
What does the analysis cost?
Analysing autoland listings is free – including for users outside Germany.
How reliable is the result?
InseratCheck evaluates only the listing text. It's an automated risk assessment – not a technical vehicle inspection. The tool helps you ask the right questions and spot information gaps early.
What do I do if InseratCheck reports a high risk?
Don't cancel straight away – but ask targeted questions. Use the concrete pointers from the analysis: request copies of the service book, the HU (MOT/roadworthiness test) report and the vehicle registration certificate. Have the vehicle checked by an independent garage before buying. InseratCheck can help you find a partner garage near where the vehicle is located.
