Just had a look at a low kms 120 series 2007 D4D GLX for sale with the only problem being it was "hail damaged" from interstate and placed on the
Written off vehicle register - WOVR-
and is a repaired written of vehicle Tier 3
ie.
If a vehicle is a repaired written-off vehicle or there is a suspicion it is stolen, re-birthed or repaired using parts from stolen vehicles, a vehicle identity inspection (Tier 3) is required before it can be registered.
just did a V check using WWW. Autocheck for REVS and more i got this
ECONOMIC REPAIRABLE - PASSED WOVI
- Inspection Date: 10/09/2009
- Type: IMPACT DAMAGE
- State recorded: SOUTH AUSTRALIA
The current owner bought it at auction, and it has passed all the motor vehicle dept inspections required for reregistration and i have seen all the paperwork. I all so have sighted the roof repair paperwork - cost - $850 from a well known toyota dealership near home
The body & paintwork is also in excellent condition, having looked underneath it seems no more dirty then other vehicles i have looked at, all round seems a excellent vehicle, drives well etc
which leads me to the question
Why would an insurance company write of a vehicle just for roof hail damage, or would they?
if also flood damaged underneath would this be an issue and how could it effect the underside,
what would i look for and how many years would it take for these to be visible ( its several years since written off )
Impact damage?
Anyone had any experience, comments about how insurance companies work in these regards etc
I assume after the QLD floods many more vehicles maybe such as this will be showing up
Any advice, suggestions, hints, steer well clear
