With US insurance write offs, you can type in the VIN number into google and more often than not, you'll find the photos showing the damage to the vehicle. Good job you didn't buy that heap of junk.

Bent as a £9 note this auction company is. How were Copart not able to verify the history when this car went through their own company damaged says it all really. Great that you checked and so you should and well done for informing those who are unaware of this however Copart have no duty of care for this kind of thing to their customers. They've come into the UK, ruined the salvage market and here we are. Great job job boys and keep this up so the British public know what to look out for.

Rob , hello I saw this car on copart in Flordia, I lived here in Flordia, after I retired from the military. I was very suspicious of this car I can explain what happened but it would take a long time too much to text. But in so many words, you have guys buying these kind of cars to resale them but can’t repair them and they keep Selling it . That’s why it has so many transfers of title. They sell it back to copart
@TheYorkMan
@TheYorkMan 2 года назад
What annoys me is the Copart listing just says the 'Primary Damage' is Minor Dents and Scratches.... That does seem like a definite case of false advertising if the car is a written off import from the US. Surely Copart should have a Car Vertical account and check vehicles to put customer's minds at ease!

A very worthwhile video. Three things. Would Lamborghini in the USA not have a service history which would include mileage? Secondly, it does show the value of Car Vertical. I have seen people on here comment adversely about them, stating things have been missed on cars they have bought. This video shows how good it can be. Finally, I would hope the Motor Insurance Bureau (MIB) in the UK, would have this information. Experian too. When I sold cars, I would pass on information to them from time to time if a vehicle was suspect. It would be nice to know that someone wasn't going to get bitten on the bum in the future.

Rob Do you think it's worth amending the title so it includes 'Copart Lamborghini'. I think that will help it go viral. I can see this video generating alot of views and providing a warning to all salvage buyers of the dangers of not doing due diligence. Is it also worth making a short version for YT or tiktok to bring more traffic to your channel. Thanks for putting out the content, love the channel.

I'm sorry lads, but I have to disagree with you in the fact that you don't blame Copart. They are a US company and they would have known the full history of this car (especially as it's a high ticket car). This may be something they do on a regular basis if they can't sell a vehicle, they then send it to one of their sites in another country and hopefully they will get it sold there, as the info will be based on the vehicles time in that country and not from the US. I could be totally wrong in this, but somehow I don't think I am. Great video Rob & Chris and a great reason why people should use Car Vertical. 👍

This is absolutely normal for a car coming from USA. This might be something new to you guys because UK has steering wheel on the wrong side so there isn't much import going on from US, but for the rest of the Europe if a car comes from US this rings the bells straight away and they also worth less than a car from Germany or Belgium etc..

If you can find the history of the car, Copart should have a legal responsibility to run proper checks on the cars. They charge enough!

You were right to do your due diligence. The higher cost means higher risk, and as you know, and auction can be a good way to sell on an example of a car that is... less than perfect, shall we say. You used your industry expert knowledge well here. Had that been even a reasonably well informed enthusiast like me, I dare say I would have been bidding on a lemon, and it seems like I wouldn't have been alone. This car would have broken your heart if you had bought it, Rob. What more is there to say? You said it all already.

This is what it is, 10 working class American men were able to afford there dream car because copart and the insurance companies provide this service. Just think about that. Once I saw Florida I new she was a flooder. I’m saving for a lightly crash damaged clean title Shelby GT, Range Rover and a nice boat. Thank you copart thank you salvage rebuilds UK. I’m in Detroit Michigan

shows how good car vertical is, especially on a left hand drive car from abroad, low value cars are worth the risk abit more, but a high value vehicle like this you would be devastated if you didnt do the research you done, and wise words as allways from chris saying bid worse case scenario before you found that out, great video guys

OMG great save from car vertical, highly unlikely the poor sole who bought that knew what we all know know, but im convinced the guy who bought it state side and shipped it here to get a fresh life knew EXACTLY what he was doing.

I hope the guy who bought it doesn't do a car vertical check after he's paid. I'm sure copart could have done a car vertical check and didn't you say copart sold it in the usa. Anyway well swerved lads.

New to your channel quite recently, but really enjoyed this - I had assumed you bought it given the length of vid. I think showing ones you dont buy is interesting too as you can explain why, and as this is all real and you film it before you buy we don't know at the beginning what will happen - and thats always more interesting.

Brilliant content and really shocking that some poor bugger has bought a car that has had some many issues and was written off someone going too lose out big time think co-part should do more when a car comes from abroad so you don't end up with a lemon and glad you guys are so experienced too do your checks before hand and find out that was a close one there 😂

Copart seems like a right pain to deal with

Definitely dodged a bullet there and a real eye opener. I know you said that Copart weren't to know, but from the checks you done, it went through Copart in the US previously. My question would be, why isn't that information made known to potential Copart UK customers? I can't believe that in 2022, they don't collaborate and share information on a central system somewhere. Great content as always guys.

Surely, Car Vertical should perform these checks so that bidders know what they are buying. I just pity the poor sod that's spent 50K on that car!
