The forecast for your car.

What will a used car cost to keep? Odocast reads official inspection results to forecast which repairs and servicing a model and year are likely to need, and what they cost.

Like a weather forecast: chances, not promises.

What you will see

Your yearly bill, before you buy

Expected costs for the next five years, split into servicing, wear and repairs.

The big repairs, and when they come

The costly faults for that model, the age and mileage when they tend to show up, and what they cost.

Prices that fit your garage

Main dealer or independent garage: the hourly rate changes the price. Always including VAT.

How it works

  1. 1

    Official inspection data

    Every year, millions of cars take their roadworthiness test. We count what fails, by model, year and age.

  2. 2

    Turned into a forecast

    Older cars of the same model show what a younger one will face at its next inspections.

  3. 3

    Priced for you

    Your type of garage and how much you drive set the numbers.
