Parameter	Details
Based on	952 similar vehicles sold at auction from 12/04/2025 to 06/02/2026 with a verified Run & Drive status.
How it works	We exclude outliers — fully burned-out vehicles, flood-damaged stripped shells, and lightly damaged near-retail units — so the estimate reflects what buyers actually pay for comparable salvage cars.
Not included	Auction fees, shipping, and taxes. This is the winning bid amount only.

What It Means	Facts and Risks
Description	Fact: Damage documented to the front edge of the vehicle — bumper, grille, lights, hood, front fenders. Causes: frontal collision, obstacle impact.
What to Check in Photos	Carefully assess damage depth: • Gaps between fenders and doors (sign of displacement) • Deformation of bumper, hood, fenders • Condition of lights, grille, decorative elements • Visible radiator, air duct damage • Signs of airbag deployment (steering wheel deformation) Important: Damage depth determines repair scale — from plastic replacement to frame rail restoration.
Damage Levels	Minimal (totaled due to parts cost): bumper, grilles, lights, sensors, distance control systems, air ducts, power steering hoses, cooling systems, decorative elements. Even with minimal collision, new parts cost may exceed totaling threshold. Medium: hood, fender deformation + radiator, intercooler damage. Serious: frame rail, subframe damage — structural defects, frame rack work required. Critical: engine damage — impact reached the motor. Airbags: With frontal impact, high probability of frontal airbag deployment — SRS system replacement required.
Expert Recommendations	✓ Assess damage depth: look at gaps between fenders and doors — sign of frame rail displacement. ✓ Consider parts cost: even minimal damage can be expensive due to sensors and systems. ✓ Check VIN report: repair history helps assess scale. ✓ Study all available photos: especially engine bay and gaps.

What It Means	Facts and Risks
Description	Side damage documented to the vehicle without specifying which side. Causes: side collision, glancing blow, parking impact.
What to Check in Photos	Carefully determine side and scale: • Which side is damaged (left/right) • Length of damaged section • Door, rocker panel deformation • Pillar condition • Gaps between doors, fenders, panels • Side glass condition • Signs of side airbag and curtain deployment Important: Side impacts often affect structural elements.
Damage Levels	Light: glancing blow without structural damage - door, fender replacement, cosmetic repair. Medium: door, fender, rocker panel deformation - parts replacement, possible rocker straightening. Critical: pillar, rocker damage - structural defects, requires frame machine restoration. Airbags: With side impact - risk of side airbag and curtain deployment - SRS system replacement required.
Buyer Risks	Structure: Rocker panels and pillars are critical body structural elements. Safety: Side protection is critical in side impacts and rollover. Repair Complexity: Restoring side damage often requires frame machine.
Expert Recommendations	✓ Assess scale: local vs extensive damage. ✓ Study all available photos: gaps, deformations, rocker and pillar condition. ✓ Check VIN report: repair history and airbag deployment. ✓ Assess Run & Drive status: if vehicle runs - that's a good sign. ⚠️ Be cautious: side damage is often structural.

Metric	Description
ACV (Actual Cash Value)	The estimated market value of the vehicle in the U.S. at the time it was written off by the insurance company. Use: Helps assess the real value of the car before damage.
ERC (Estimated Repair Cost)	The insurer's preliminary estimate of repair costs for the U.S. market. Use: A general indicator for budgeting restoration costs.

Type	Description & Risks
Insurance Company	The most reliable seller type. Vehicles are sold after an insurance claim payout. Usually sold "as is" — without hidden repairs or defect masking before being listed on the insurance auto auction.
Dealer (Reseller)	Sold by an intermediary. Warning: High risk of poor-quality pre-sale repairs (cosmetic cover-ups) to conceal actual damage. An independent inspection is mandatory.
Rental Company	Vehicles from rental fleets. Often repaired at the company's expense (Self-Insured) without being reported to databases. Risk: History reports may show "No Accidents" and a Clean Title, while hiding actual repairs. The price is higher, but the history may be incomplete. Inspection is required.
Not-Insurance (Bank / Private / Other)	Banks, leasing companies, or private parties (Dealer / Reseller). Damage history may not be obvious. A detailed check is recommended; we do not recommend buying without an inspection.
