# RegCheck API

> RegCheck is a vehicle registration lookup API covering 50+ countries, operated by Infinite Loop Development Ltd (Ireland). Given a number plate, it returns vehicle make, model, year, engine, fuel type, VIN, colour, and country-specific data such as MOT history, insurance status, and inspection records. The API is SOAP/ASMX-based, returning XML with an embedded `vehicleJson` field.
