Source: GB vehicle-check prices verified against each vendor's own published pages on 2026-08-26 by hubs/knownvehicle.com/ingest_vendors.py: every quoted figure re-fetched and matched verbatim (hash-pinned); class coverage evidenced by the vendor's live product page.

totalcarcheck.co.uk Total Car Check prices page (Gold three-check bundle price) (vendor's own published page, quoted verbatim with retrieval date)
home.hpicheck.com HPI Check homepage (MultiCheck three-check bundle price) (vendor's own published page, quoted verbatim with retrieval date)

Methodology: Every rendered figure is a price the vendor publishes on its own page, re-fetched and matched verbatim (the quote and its retrieval date travel with the cell), then hash-pinned; a vendor that publishes no price is listed with that fact, never an estimate. Figures are advertised single-check ENTRY prices in GBP -- bundle and subscription rates differ, and a vendor's own promotional pricing can move the day you buy, so these compare the standing advertised price rather than the checkout total.
