Damage Glossary

Damage can range from cosmetic issues like scratches and dents to severe structural problems. It can be caused by collisions, weather events, vandalism, or other incidents.

Amber traffic light
Mileage inconsistency: The curve of the reported odometer readings is not continuously ascending. This can be caused by an incorrect indication of the odometer readings (e.g. a clerical error), but may also be an indication of manipulation. Check the history section below thoroughly and take the average kilometers driven per year into consideration.
