    Money owing and write-offs on the Chrysler 300

    16% had money owing
    21% were recorded as written off

    Of about 120 used Chrysler 300 checked on Carify since November 2023. Every car checked: 9% had money owing and 13% were written off.

    These are cars people chose to check before buying, so they are not a share of every Chrysler 300 on the road. Money owing is what was registered against the car on the day it was checked.

    Where to find the VIN

    Most cars show it at the base of the windscreen, on a door pillar and under the bonnet. The registration papers carry it too.

    Older cars also carry a compliance plate, usually under the bonnet or on a door pillar. A car supplied new since mid 2021 may have none: it is entered on the Register of Approved Vehicles instead.

    Run these checks in one go

    The history report checks for finance owing, write-offs, theft and odometer rollbacks.
