The Written‑Off Vehicle Register (WOVR) is a national database of cars that have been damaged beyond repair. A “statutory write‑off” can never be registered again. A “repairable write‑off” can be fixed but may hide serious structural damage. Always check the WOVR status on your PPSR search and avoid anything flagged. Buying a write‑off can void insurance and leave you with a dangerous car.
Our Confidence+ tier walks you through reading WOVR entries and deciding when to walk away.
