vehicle

nl_vehicle_compare
Use when the user is choosing between 2 or 3 Dutch used cars: plates side by side with make, model, age, APK expiry, insurance, open recall, odometer verdict, import and taxi history, catalogue price, CO2 and power, the best per metric and red flags. Input: Dutch licence plates. Source: RDW. Costs 0.004 USDC via x402, or 2 credits of a Factline API key.

Input: Dutch licence plate. Source: RDW. Costs 0.02 USDC via x402, or 10 credits of a Factline API key.
apk

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.

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.

Factline Vehicles — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Factline Vehicles do?
It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: buy_full_vehicle_report, nl_apk_alert, nl_car_model, nl_vehicle_basic, nl_vehicle_compare, nl_vehicle_report. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Factline Vehicles working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 87 of 87 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 225 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Factline Vehicles?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Factline Vehicles need an API key?
No. Factline Vehicles completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Factline Vehicles?
It answers our handshake in 225 ms on average, which is faster than 58% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
