How to read a vehicle's auction record
A vehicle's auction record tells you how it has moved through the market. Reading it well turns a confusing list into useful insight.
Reading the record
Count the appearances
More appearances can mean more unresolved problems.
Compare the damage
Look for damage that grew or changed between listings.
Check the timing
Rapid relisting can signal deals that fell through.
Weigh the prices
Use past hammer prices to sanity-check the current one.
