    Returns a secure payment link (iDEAL or card, via Dodo Payments, EUR 1.95 incl. VAT) for the full English vehicle report: APK inspection history with defects, recall details, import/taxi/export history, specs and catalogue price. Only use when the user wants the full report or asks to buy it.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use when the user asks when a Dutch car's APK (MOT) expires or whether it is still valid: expiry date, days left and a status band (expired, due within 30 or 90 days, ok), with insurance and open-recall flags. Cheap enough to run daily for a fleet. Input: Dutch licence plate. Source: RDW. Costs 0.001 USDC via x402, or 1 credit of a Factline API key.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Free. Use when the user asks how reliable a car model is, or which used car to buy: facts for the model in the Netherlands from RDW data: APK (MOT) defect rate vs the average of all models, the 10 most common APK defects, recalls with component and risk, share with an open recall, share with an illogical (rolled-back) odometer, cars registered. Covers ~450 common passenger-car models.
