How an auction car reaches your market

1 Sold at a US or Canadian auction Insurance write-offs, flood cars and dealer trade-ins are sold with photos, damage and title recorded on sale day.
2 Shipped overseas Exporters ship by container or RoRo; the trip usually takes several weeks.
3 Repaired and registered locally After repair the car looks different — but the VIN, and its history, stay the same.
4 Sold by a local dealer Check the VIN first: the auction record shows the damage, mileage and title it was sold with.

What to check before you pay

Odometer — a car exported with 180,000 miles can be advertised here with 90,000. The auction record shows the reading on sale day.
Accident damage — repaired panels hide what the auction photos show: which side took the hit, whether the airbags fired, how deep it went.
Title brand — salvage, flood and total-loss records do not always survive re-registration in a new country. The VIN does.

Frequently asked questions

On the windscreen at the base of the glass, on the driver-side door pillar, and on the registration document. Check that all three match before anything else — a mismatch ends the viewing.

Especially there. A dealer may hold some paperwork; a private seller usually offers only their word. The VIN record does not depend on either.
