calculate_car_tax | Calculate annual UK vehicle tax (VED / road tax) for a car. Handles all three UK systems: cars first registered before 1 March 2001 (taxed on engine size, so engine_size_cc is required), 1 March 2001 to 31 March 2017 (CO2 bands £20–£790, so co2 is required), and from 1 April 2017 (flat standard rate). Also works out the Expensive Car Supplement: over £40,000 list price when new for petrol, diesel params: registration_year*, registration_date, fuel*, co2, engine_size_cc, list_price_when_new |
check_clean_air_zone | Check whether a car is compliant with UK clean air zones (London ULEZ, Bristol, Birmingham) and what it would cost to drive into them. Returns compliance, the daily charge per zone, and estimated annual cost. Only 3 of the 8 English charging zones charge private cars; Scotland uses Low Emission Zones, which issue penalties rather than a daily charge. Needs the registration year and fuel (the year params: registration_year, fuel*, days_per_year |
check_mot_due_date | Work out when a car's MOT test is due, and the earliest date it can be tested without losing its renewal date. These are Great Britain (DVSA) rules: a car's first MOT falls on the third anniversary of registration, then annually. Northern Ireland is tested by the DVA, where the first test is not due until 4 years old. Test up to one calendar month minus a day before the current certificate expires params: first_registered, mot_expires |
mot_outlook | Odds that a used car passes its next MOT first time, for its age and mileage, counted from DVSA's own MOT test records with odometer readings (Great Britain) — and how those odds move one mileage band lower or higher for a car of the same age. Pass make and model as well: for the models we cover it adds that model's pass rate at the same mileage, compared fairly against cars of the same ages, and params: make, model, registration_year, age_years, mileage* |
get_model_reliability | Get known common faults, best and worst model years, and real DVSA MOT first-time pass rates for a specific used car model in the UK. The MOT pass rates are DVSA Class 4 test records for Great Britain only, age-matched against the national average; a pass with rectification at the station counts as a first-time pass (DVSA's own initial-test measure counts it as a failure and reports a lower figure params: model_slug, registration_year |
search_used_cars | Search live used cars for sale from UK dealers on Autoza, with current asking prices in GBP and mileage in miles. Returns a canonical autoza.co.uk URL, the town or area, and the vehicle type for each result. Searches cars unless vehicle_type asks for vans, motorcycles or other stock. If nothing matches every filter, optional filters are relaxed one at a time and the response lists which ones. A re params: vehicle_type, make, model, min_year, max_year, min_price, max_price, fuel_type, transmission, body_type, location, limit |
estimate_running_costs | Estimate what a specific vehicle on Autoza costs to run for a year in GBP, with a range wherever a figure is modelled. A car gets road tax, fuel, servicing, the MOT test fee and insurance. A motorcycle or van in Great Britain gets road tax and the MOT only: fuel, servicing and insurance are not estimated, so its total is partial and not_included says why. Caravans, motorhomes and trucks, and motor params: listing_url, listing_id |
get_uk_price_guide | Get current UK used-car asking-price guidance from live dealer listings on Autoza — typical (median), lowest and highest asking price, optionally narrowed to a make or model. Where too few cars match to give a fair figure it says so instead of answering. Cars unless vehicle_type asks for vans, motorcycles or other stock. Prices are GBP and reflect what dealers are asking right now, not trade or va params: vehicle_type, make, model |
ask_about_car | Answer a buyer's specific questions about ONE car listed on Autoza — previous owners, service history, warranty, number of keys, previous use, and the core specification. Every answer comes from the dealer's own listing and says so: it is what the dealer states, not an independent inspection. A question the listing does not answer comes back as unknown, which does not mean no. Pass the listing URL params: listing_url, listing_id, include_unanswered |
