Terms of Use

Last updated: 11 July 2026

1. About these terms

These terms govern your use of the AutoSafe website. By using our service, you agree to these terms.

AutoSafe is operated by Henri Rapson trading as AutoSafe.

  • Contact: autosafehq@gmail.com

2. What our service does

AutoSafe provides recorded MOT details together with either the submitted vehicle's predicted chance of failing its next MOT (produced automatically from its recorded MOT history and details, when available) or the failure rate for the closest supported group of comparable vehicles in aggregated DVSA data, clearly labelled. It does not inspect or diagnose the submitted vehicle.

Our service:

  • Labels whether the result is a per-vehicle assessment or a comparison, with the mileage source, scope and sample size where applicable
  • Shows component patterns only when the comparison data supports them
  • Provides indicative repair cost ranges only when supporting component data exists
  • Is completely free to use

3. Results are not guarantees

This is important - please read carefully.

The displayed figures — whether a predicted chance for the submitted vehicle or aggregate comparison evidence — are for information only. They are not a guarantee of any particular MOT outcome.

We cannot guarantee that:

  • Your vehicle will pass or fail its MOT
  • The displayed rate or predicted chance will reflect your vehicle's next result
  • A component pattern means that issue is present on your vehicle
  • The absence of a component pattern means the issue is absent

Many factors affect MOT results that we cannot assess, including:

  • The condition of parts we cannot see from data alone
  • Recent repairs or maintenance you have done
  • The vehicle's condition at the time of its next physical test
  • Wear and tear since the last MOT

You should not rely solely on the comparison report when making decisions about your vehicle.

4. Repair cost estimates

Any repair cost ranges we show are estimates only, based on configured indicative component-price ranges.

Actual costs vary significantly based on:

  • Your location
  • The garage you use
  • Your specific vehicle
  • Parts availability
  • The actual condition of components

We do not guarantee these estimates are accurate for your situation.

5. Third-party data

Vehicle details and recorded MOT information come from the DVSA MOT History service. Comparison rates come from aggregated official MOT records.

We do not control the accuracy or completeness of DVSA data. If the underlying data is incorrect, the report may be affected.

6. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

  • We provide this service "as is" without any warranties
  • We are not liable for any losses arising from your use of the comparison report
  • We are not liable for any decisions you make based on our service
  • Our total liability to you is limited to £100

We do not exclude or limit liability for:

  • Death or personal injury caused by our negligence
  • Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation
  • Any other liability that cannot be excluded by law

This service is provided free of charge. The limitations above reflect this.

7. Your responsibilities

When using our service, you agree not to:

  • Use automated tools to scrape or access our service
  • Submit false vehicle registration numbers
  • Attempt to circumvent any security measures
  • Use our service for any unlawful purpose

You may use our service for personal, non-commercial purposes only.

9. Changes to the service

We may:

  • Modify the service at any time
  • Add or remove features
  • Suspend or discontinue the service entirely

We will try to give notice of significant changes, but we are not obliged to do so.

10. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top shows when they were last updated.

Continued use of our service after changes means you accept the new terms.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

Any disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

12. Severability
