The repairsLow confidence
| Repair | What it is based on | Range | Used |
|---|
| Front bumper scuff repair and respray | Photo 1: the dark grey front bumper looks scuffed and worn on the lower edge and corner. It may only need a touch-up. | R 1 500 – R 3 500 | R 2 500 |
| Interior valet and general tidy | Photo 1: a high-mileage work bakkie (247,000 km) with a fibreglass canopy. Some interior wear is likely, but only the front is visible. | R 800 – R 1 500 | R 1 200 |
| Repair estimate | R 2 300 – R 5 000 | R 3 700 |
The one front three-quarter photo shows a white NP200 with a fibreglass canopy and no obvious crash damage. Only the front is minor scuffing on the bumper. The rear, the canopy, the interior, the tyres, the underside and the mechanicals are not visible, and the notes say nothing about them.
Each repair’s “used” figure is the middle of its range. Not included: the auction house’s buyer’s commission, admin fee and VAT, or getting the car home. An AI model’s reading of photos is not an inspection — view the car before you bid.
