Accidented Japanese auction car buying

[pwuser156532646969]

Hello.
I am in stage of buying Japanese auctioned car like Mira or similar.
Should i buy accidented auctioned Mira which is relatively new model and low mileage car but the auction data revealed that the both sides were hit and accidented. The current status of car is that the roof and pillars are painted and doors are somehow in original paint (maybe doors replaced). There is no grade on auction sheet.
What will be the resale value of this car and how much price decrease should be applicable while buying such car as compared to regular non accidental car.

I am in car import business.... avoid such cars that have no auction or are no claim auction cars. They are badly damaged cars with many other faults that are not visible even some times they have damaged engines and suspensions tooo..... and resale wise they will 100% cause problems ...buyer wont buy this

So when the car was auctioned it was acidented from sides , and now the roof and pillars are painted?? your buying a total loss car it would be worth a quarter of the orifnal price , forget about selling it not even dealers will buy it off you.

Better stay away from such vehicles. My friend calls such vehicles as “Can of Worms”.

Long time back one of our relatives bought Honda Zest.
The car was apparently good, air condition was excellent, engine was good, drive was nice.

But the body was fully rusted beneath. And under the carpets & under insulations, the body was like disaster. It was actually an affected car by Tsunami.
They immediately regretted their decision of buying that car and immediately sold it with straight 1 lakh loss. Its was around 2010-2011 somewhere.

Basically you should never consider a car with pillars or roof repainted whether local or imported.
