June 2022 registration, 60,000 km actual mileage. Original metal body panels with 2 panels repainted. Passed third-party inspection. Fees valid until July 2027.
We will remove the chassis guard to physically inspect the battery pack's lower shell for serious dents or scratches, and check for signs of mud or sand intrusion in the waterproof vent at the edge of the battery pack.
No, we are not responsible. The high salt and humidity of the marine environment do have an impact on the chassis surface. We recommend buyers in tropical islands or countries that use salt for winter snow removal to perform a thorough chassis anti-rust spray locally immediately after the vehicle arrives.
A proper inspection relies on equipment, not just eyes. The inspector should use a paint thickness gauge to measure 50-60 points across body panels; original paint is typically 80-150 microns. An OBD diagnostic scanner reads stored and pending fault codes across all control units, and for EVs it also reads battery state of health and charge cycle counts. The car must go on a lift for the underbody check: frame rails, suspension components, oil leaks and accident repair marks are only visible from below. A battery tester checks starting voltage and charging system health, and a tread depth gauge documents tire condition. Ask for the report to include raw readings and dated photos rather than a simple pass/fail summary - that is what makes it verifiable.
