| Damage Type | Typical Offer Impact |
|---|---|
| Non-running/Mechanical failure | Moderate to high reduction, depending on engine/gearbox cost |
| Accident-damaged (bodywork) | Medium reduction; higher with frame or safety system damage |
| Water/fire/flood | Generally greater reduction, especially for electronics affected |
| Minor cosmetic (scratches/dents) | Low reduction; salvageable parts retain value |
