AUCKLAND, 2 November 2026 — Every car on New Zealand roads carries a story: when its warrant of fitness falls due, and how far it has really travelled, reading by reading. That information has sat on the official vehicle record for years. CARFIX has now put it to work for owners. Every part CARFIX supplies is recorded against the car's rego, right alongside the car's own official record, building a history of what was fitted, when, and at what point in the car's life.

A good workshop has always kept a book on every car it looks after. CARFIX keeps that book for you, automatically. Look up a rego and CARFIX sees when the next WoF is due and the car's recent odometer readings. At checkout, owners can add today's reading in one simple step, so every part is tied to the moment it went on.

Signed-in customers find their car, their orders and their conversations with Bob, CARFIX's AI parts expert, together in one place. Bob is on hand with mechanical know-how and fault-code help, so owners can take on more of the work themselves, with the record growing as they go.

It matters more than ever. New Zealand's WoF rules changed on 1 November 2026, and many cars now go longer between inspections. With fewer checks along the way, owners carry more of the care in between, and a clear history of what has been done becomes one of the most useful things a car can have. Next, CARFIX plans to put that history to work with reminders before a WoF falls due, service suggestions based on how far the car really travels, and a record owners can share when it's time to sell, to show their car has been well looked after.

None of this began with new data. It began with the standard CARFIX sets itself: if something would make owning a car easier, find a way to deliver it, and keep it simple. That drive for customer satisfaction, business excellence and simplicity sets the pace of innovation at CARFIX. Paired with deep technical capability and a willingness to be bold, it keeps lifting the bar, and the bar CARFIX keeps raising is its own.

For owners, the result is a car that's easier to look after, a record that's always to hand, and one more reason to keep a good car safe, reliable and on the road for longer, rather than replacing it before its time.
