“Dealer” caught out lying – buying the vehicle report from CARJAM was the best money ever spent!!

Thursday, May 13th, 2010

I saw this article on your website http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/2779015/Car-dealer-conceals-crash-histories and saw that the car I was about to buy had had its registration cancelled …

Thanks to seeing the article, I dug deeper and found out that the car had been in an accident and had been written off.  The dealer, posing as a private vendor, continued to lie to me when I asked him if the car had been in an accident.  When I asked if I could arrange for an AA inspection he offered to organise an “inspection” through another company for me… just like the guy featured in the article.  Buying the vehicle report from your website was the best $14 I ever spent!!

Thanks Theresa

I think, the best deals are reregistered cars. 1. They are properly repaired for sure (VTNZ has very strict rules, I think). They are cheaper. There are many cars on the street not properly repaired! I you wnt know about without AA!

Response to John, All good and well buying a re registered car if it has been crashed and properly repaired. But try and sell it in a hurry and you will have to price it even cheaper and if you have a big crash it may not withstand the same impact twice.
