Vehicle in excellent condition, passed inspection, top-notch condition, 0 claims, 0 ownership transfers.
This vehicle is 10 years old, with an average annual mileage of 2,800 kilometers. It has been used very infrequently and has never been transferred to another owner, making it a good first-hand vehicle. The exterior paint is in good condition, although there may be a few minor marks. The interior is clean and tidy, with minor signs of use. The overall body frame is intact, but there are a few minor abnormalities. The fluid levels are normal, and the powertrain operates smoothly without any abnormalities.
For older vehicles or those used in high temperature and humidity areas, we will focus on opening the hood to check if the insulation of the wiring harness in the high-temperature area of the engine compartment is cracked or brittle, to identify potential short circuit risks that could lead to spontaneous combustion.
We maintain an absolute skeptical attitude. In addition to regular visual inspections, we focus on checking for sediment accumulation around the sunroof drainage channels and look for water stains under the A-pillar trim and front floor mats. This is the only effective physical evidence to determine if the sunroof drainage holes are blocked, leading to hidden leaks.
Based on practical risk assessment, we strongly recommend setting aside 3% to 5% of the car price as a buffer fund for even the highest-rated used cars, to cover oil changes, new tires, minor shipping scratches, and local inspection labor costs.
