The repairsLow confidence
| Repair | What it is based on | Range | Used |
|---|---|---|---|
| Respray bonnet, front bumper and left front fender to match the white body | Photo 1: the bonnet and front bumper are dark grey and the left front fender is grey primer. The rest of the car is white, so these panels are mismatched or unpainted. | R 9 000 – R 15 000 | R 12 000 |
| Repair and paint scattered dents and scuffs on the left doors | Photo 1: the left front door has some marks and dents. This is grouped as minor panel work. | R 1 500 – R 3 500 | R 2 500 |
| Interior valet | Photo 1: general used condition. The interior is barely visible, so this is a basic allowance. | R 800 – R 1 500 | R 1 200 |
| Repair estimate | R 11 300 – R 20 000 | R 15 700 | |
The car has mismatched or primer-coloured front panels (bonnet, bumper and left front fender) that need a respray, plus minor door marks. Only one front-left photo was supplied, so the right side, rear, interior, engine bay and mechanical condition cannot be assessed, and no mechanical costs are included.
Each repair’s “used” figure is the middle of its range. Fees, transport and licensing are in the box above, not here. An AI model’s reading of photos is not an inspection — view the car before you bid.
