RAC do the HPI check for a deep sea diver (£5), same sort of check of all the others at £30.

I knew they did £5 checks via some cashback website in the past, do thye do this all the time on the RAC site now then?
I've never had a HPI check done myself, but g/f is considering a vx220 so no doubt i'll have 1 or 2 to do soon...
