Why Buy a Vehicle with Vandalism Damage?

Vehicles with vandalism damage can be a great value, especially if the damage is cosmetic. Here’s why you might consider purchasing a car with vandalism damage:

  • Easy Cosmetic Repairs: Many vandalism-damaged vehicles only need surface repairs like repainting or replacing windows, which are typically less expensive than mechanical fixes.
  • Lower Purchase Price: Cars with vandalism damage are often priced lower, making them a good deal for buyers willing to handle cosmetic repairs.
  • No Major Mechanical Damage: Since vandalism usually only affects the exterior, these cars often run perfectly well and just need visual fixes.
  • Potential for Restoration: If you’re looking for a project car, vandalism-damaged vehicles provide the opportunity to restore the exterior to pristine condition with minimal effort.


Pros and Cons of Vandalism Damaged Vehicles

PROS:

  • Low-Cost Repairs: Exterior damage caused by vandalism is often less costly to repair than engine or structural damage.

  • Minimal Impact on Performance: Since vandalism typically doesn’t affect the car’s mechanics, the vehicle often runs well and only requires visual restoration.

  • Opportunity for Customization: Fixing vandalism damage gives you the chance to repaint or modify the car’s exterior to your taste.

  • Quick Repairs: Replacing windows or fixing scratches is often a quicker process than repairing other types of vehicle damage.

CONS:

  • Paint Matching: If the vehicle needs a repaint, matching the original paint color could be a challenge, particularly with older or rare models.

  • Insurance Considerations: Some vandalism damage could affect your insurance rates or coverage depending on the extent of the repairs needed.

  • Potential Hidden Damage: In rare cases, vandalism could cause unseen damage, such as electrical issues if wiring was tampered with.

Damage Types


All Over Damage

Salvage cars with all-over damage may have multiple areas affected, including body panels and internal components. This type of damage can vary greatly in severity.

Biohazardous/Chemical Damage

Vehicles marked with biohazardous or chemical damage have been exposed to substances that may require specialized cleaning or disposal.

Burn Damage (Engine, Interior, Overall)

Fire damage can affect a vehicle's engine, interior, or spread throughout the entire car. The severity of the burn damage impacts the type of repairs needed.

Flood/Water Damage

Water or flood damage can affect both the interior and the mechanical components of the vehicle. The extent of the damage often depends on how long the vehicle was exposed to water.

Frame Damage

Vehicles with frame damage may need structural repairs, but with expert handling, these vehicles can still be a great option.

Front End Damage

Front-end damage typically affects the grille, headlights, and bumper. It can vary from minor to severe depending on the extent of the collision.

Hail Damage

Hail damage typically affects the exterior of the vehicle. Dents and cracked glass can often be repaired, making these vehicles a good investment.

Mechanical Damage

Cars with mechanical damage may have issues with the engine, transmission, or other mechanical components. Understanding the extent of the damage is key to making an informed purchase.

Minor Dents and Scratches

Vehicles with minor dents and scratches often have mostly cosmetic damage, which can be fixed at a low cost.

Normal Wear

Salvage cars marked with normal wear are often older vehicles with expected levels of usage-related wear and tear.

Partial/Incomplete Repair

Vehicles with partial or incomplete repairs may have started the repair process but were not fully restored. Buyers should be aware of the extent of work required to complete repairs.

Rear End Damage

Rear-end damage often involves the bumper, taillights, and trunk area. Repair costs can vary based on the impact.

Rejected Repair

A vehicle with a rejected repair indicates that previous repair efforts were unsuccessful or incomplete, requiring further attention.

Rollover Damage

Rollover damage can cause extensive harm to the roof and body structure of the vehicle. Repairs may involve significant restoration efforts depending on the severity.

Roof/Top Damage

Top or roof damage usually affects the roof panel and can vary in severity from minor dents to more significant damage caused by impacts.

Salvage History

Vehicles with a salvage history have previously sustained damage but may have been repaired. It's important to understand the extent of the original damage and how well it was repaired.

Side Damage

Side damage typically affects the doors, windows, and side panels. Repairs can range from minor bodywork to more extensive frame adjustments.

Stripped Damage

Vehicles marked as stripped have had parts or components removed. Buyers should assess the missing parts and the cost to replace them.
