Car #1 has a lower Score than Car #2. However, take a look at the Score Ranges. For Car #1, other comparable 1999 Nissan Maximas should fall into a range from 76 to 81, but this car scored an 84. That means the car has a more favorable vehicle history (with regard to the Score factors listed above) compared to other similar cars of the same make and model.

Title Washing
Because title brand definitions vary by state, sometimes a title brand will not transfer to the title in the new state, which means the title becomes "clean." Unscrupulous sellers can increase the sale price of cars by "cleaning" or "washing" the titles by registering them in states where the title brands do not transfer.
AutoCheck can help protect you from such hidden title brands. AutoCheck receives title brand, registration and other important information over the life of the vehicle, regardless of where the vehicle is registered.
Even if a vehicle moves to another state that doesn't recognize certain brands, the AutoCheck vehicle history will still reflect all previously reported title brands.

Lemon Title Brand
It is common to call any car that has excessive mechanical problems a "lemon." However, you might not know that each state has its own standards (or "lemon laws" on what makes a vehicle a lemon. In fact, not all states even have lemon laws.
Generally speaking, if a certain element of a vehicle has malfunctioned several times while under warranty, and this malfunctioning element makes the car inoperable or unsafe to drive, such a vehicle could be branded by the state as a lemon on its title.
Another key point is that the manufacturer be given a chance to repair the problem. If the vehicle continues to have the same problem (even after attempts to repair it), the vehicle can be branded as a lemon. In addition, the problems must have occurred during the warranty period.
It's important to remember that each state has its own lemon law. Contact your state department of motor vehicles to learn more about the lemon laws in your state.
To find out if your vehicle is a lemon, an AutoCheck vehicle history report will note on your report if the vehicle has a lemon title.

The AutoCheck Score is based on a number of key factors, including
:
Age - In general, the older the car, the lower the Score.
Vehicle Class - Compact cars look nothing like pickup trucks. Their breakdown history can be just as different.
Mileage - In general, the more miles a vehicle has, the lower the Score, compared to similar vehicles.
Number of Owners - Our data tell us the typical number of owners that vehicles generally have over time. If a car has had more than the expected number, that can cause the Score to decrease.
Vehicle Use and Events - Other factors such as taxi use, accidents, repossession and theft history also affect the AutoCheck Score.

Buying your dream salvaged cars


It is not extra ordinary for cars to get into accidents. Often after accidents, some cars are beyond repair. Every car has insurance with it. But if the extent of the damage is beyond the worth of the insurance, the insurance companies declare those cars as salvaged cars. They are auctioned after little or no repair at all. People bid prices to get those cars only because of the body-parts that certain USA made cars can flaunt of.


http://www.auctionexport.com/Buying-your-dream-salvaged-cars.html

The places where one can come across such cars are junkyard, salvage yards and public salvage auctions conducted by insurance companies. Now-a-days you can even auction for salvaged cars of other states. The salvaged cars of USA enjoy high demand because of the value of the parts.

https://www.auctionexport.com/en/

Dealers often consider salvaged cars as a piece of luck as a good quality car may come to you by sheer luck. With little touch of repair, it can be a great car which you can not think of getting in a low price. Just because it is damaged, the price is lowered.

http://www.auctionexport.com/Buying-your-dream-salvaged-cars.html

Yet there is the other side of the coin too. The salvaged car may appear too good. But the real condition of the car can never be thoroughly examined in an auction. One has to take the word of the dealer for true. Moreover, one cannot get the rightful ownership of the car at the very moment of buying as these cars are unclaimed cars but not actually orphan cars. So the ownership has to be procured separately.

Auto salvage- booming market!

In an age of instant change and gratification, is it any wonder that the market for auto salvage is booming? All the talk of the economy being in peril notwithstanding, people are still replacing their old cars with new ones almost at the drop of a hat. Call it avarice or sheer necessity but newer models of cars continually replacing the old ones are a regular feature in the average household and the auto salvage market is only too happy to cash onto it. For, one man’s discard is another one’s dream and if he can get it at a price which he can afford, why should he look a gift horse in the mouth?
