THAT CAR NZ

THAT CAR NZ is a 100% New Zealand-owned vehicle history and background check service operated by That Car Limited, based at Suite 12163, 17B Farnham Street, Parnell, Auckland. The platform provides comprehensive vehicle reports by searching multiple NZ Government registers, delivering results in a clear, single-page report format typically within 30 seconds of purchase. The service covers cars, motorcycles, vans, trucks, buses, motorhomes, and trailers - any vehicle in New Zealand with a plate number or 17-character VIN. THAT CAR NZ is the third of three NZ vehicle history report providers, alongside CARJAM and MotorWeb, positioning itself as a straightforward, affordable alternative with full reports priced at NZ$11.95. Reports include money owing checks (searching current plates, past plates, VIN, and chassis numbers for registered security interests), stolen status verification from the NZ Motor Vehicle Register (updated directly by Police), ownership history with dates and non-individual owner details, vehicle fitness and damage records, importation and registration details, odometer readings with consistency checks, vehicle usage history (taxi, rental, goods transport, agriculture), and registration plate history. The platform also offers free basic vehicle information and recall warnings at no charge, along with business services including bulk reporting, API access, and ongoing monthly reporting for dealerships and fleet operators. THAT CAR NZ emphasises its New Zealand ownership and the use of official government data sources, distinguishing itself in a market segment dominated by larger players.

THAT CAR NZ includes RUC (Road User Charges) licence and status information within its vehicle reports, with a dedicated 'Subject to RUC' field (Yes/No) in the Registration & Licence section. This helps buyers verify whether a diesel or electric vehicle is subject to distance-based road user charges and whether its RUC obligations are current. The information is sourced from the NZ Motor Vehicle Register and helps potential buyers identify any outstanding RUC liabilities before purchasing a vehicle.
