About Car File

Built in London for UK drivers and fleet owners who want a smarter way to manage their vehicles.

Why We Built Car File

Every UK driver knows the hassle: scattered MOT dates, forgotten tax renewals, paper service receipts crammed in the glovebox, and no clear picture of what your car actually costs to run.

Car File was born from that frustration. We set out to build a single platform that connects directly to official DVLA data, automates the reminders you can't afford to miss, and puts your full vehicle history at your fingertips — whether you own one car or manage a fleet of fifty.

As a UK-registered company (Car File Ltd, No. 14550359) and a registered UK trade mark holder (UK00004324441), we're committed to building a service that UK drivers and businesses can trust for the long term.
