Type	Description
ACTUAL	The odometer reading is believed to be the true and actual mileage of the lot.
EXEMPT	By Federal Law, no odometer code is required to be displayed for this lot.
NOT ACTUAL	The odometer reading does not correctly reflect the mileage of the lot or it cannot be known.
EXCEEDS MECHANICAL LIMITS	The true mileage of the lot cannot be expressed because it has exceeded the capacity of the odometer to measure it.

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.

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.

Rate	Coverage
1%	Covers total loss only during transportation. Any new damage that occurs in transit is not covered.
2.5%	Covers total loss and new damage that occurs from the moment the vehicle is accepted at the U.S. warehouse until it arrives at the port of discharge. Deductible: USD 200. Compensation is calculated based on the average market cost of repairs and replacement parts (new or used, depending on the most economically reasonable option). Official dealer pricing is not used.
