Hi guys,

Ive purchased a Ford Fiesta ST, had it under a week, the garage salesman said he performs checks on all vehicles and everything is fine.

I've just done a check myself now and this is what I have.

Plate Transfer

The current plate was transferred to this vehicle on 21/11/2008
P7**V was applied to this vehicle on 22/07/2008
This VRM has been recorded as having an outstanding finance agreement
An outstanding finance agreement was recorded on 15/03/2013 against a BAILEY APPROACH 745 PEUGE



BU56TYD was applied to this vehicle on 14/06/2008
There are no interests recorded against BU56TYD



P6**V was applied to this vehicle on 01/09/2006
This VRM has been recorded as an insurance theft
The insurance theft was recorded on 05/01/2005 against a MG TF 160




I have no idea what this Bailey approach and MG thing is about.
What should I do, or what can I do??

Read, and think. Your car has had two personalised registration marks, and those marks have been subject to a finance agreement when on a motorhome and a theft when on an MG, neither of which relate to your Fiesta.

Yeah seems ok by the looks of it.

However how many times do people buy the car then do the hpi check?
