| Damage type | Typical offer impact |
|---|---|
| Front/rear collision (structural) | Higher devaluation due to repair complexity and part replacement |
| Mechanical failure (non-running) | Moderate impact; depends on engine/transmission condition |
| Flood or water damage | Significant impact due to electrical/corrosion risk |
| Fire damage | Major impact; often valued primarily for parts or scrap |
