Frequently Asked Questions
Does a declared accident significantly lower value?
Yes, a minor accident reduces value by 5-10%, medium by 12-15%, serious by 25% or more. Quality repairs limit the impact.
Does vehicle origin have an impact?
Yes. EU import reduces by 3-5%, non-EU import by 8-10% (different standards, less available parts).
Why does the number of owners matter?
More owners suggests intensive use or potential problems. Beyond 3 owners, expect 2-4% reduction per additional owner.
Is an ex-rental vehicle worth less?
Yes, typically 5-10% less. However, these vehicles are often well maintained with complete history.
Does complete service history have value?
Absolutely. A complete service book at the official network can increase value by 5-10% compared to a vehicle without history.
