Cars with an overall grade R, RA, A or 0 (zero) can carry a minor “stigma” for being graded as repair history cars. However, it is worth remembering that some cars of grades 3, 3.5 and even grade 4 may also have had repairs.
What may be graded RA in one auction, could be a grade 3.5 in another auction. This is why we always remind customers that grades can only be used as the most general categories, and in order to really understand a car they should always get us to translate the inspection report prior to finalizing their bid.
We find that the most successful importers really understand how it all works - from the auction to the ship and beyond. Don't get left behind!
