Yep, that's what I found out. Vendor failed to mention it tho :rolleyes:

That combined with the odd, inconsistant spec and the fact the guy suddenly realised he'd sold it when I asked him some questions makes me suspicious.

May be a perfectly fine car, just warning people to be careful :)

Mine ?

T'was cleared by the insurance co (with a top-up from me) in December 2000. Where did you search to find that ?

Nicely
12-01-2003, 21:04
Still there with HPI... Maybe worth asking the insurance company to make sure it comes off.

Nicely, can you check the history on L815SBG for me?
It's been slightly damaged, dunno if it was ever reported, it seems to have lost the last 2 years of Nissan Service History and all the MOT's have gone missing.

Nicely
13-01-2003, 08:58
Chris,

It's been on finance since Sept 2000. No 'write-off' listed. Beware that third party insurance 'write-offs' don't get shown on HPI/Experian registers. :(

OK. I'm willing to do the odd check on potential new buys through this thread. They must be 200SXs. If you give me a different model, I won't give the result and I won't do another one for that user. I'll tell you if it's clear or, if it's dodgy, briefly what the issue is. If you want more info, pay for an AA or HPI check. :D

Hi mate,

Just to double check on that S14 Im pondering buying. P605 JEV.

Thanks mate.

Hi Mate

Any chance of doing one on an S13 : H771 YSE (Was first registered as H945 XSN then changed to JAZ 9625 before it became H771 YSE).

Thanks

Any chance of a check on a 2001 R34 UK spec GTR Skyline V-Spec?
Think I know who the previous owner is, trying to get the reg off him through the GTR board.
A firm "NO!" won't harm my feelings at all but I thought I would ask on the off-chance hoping it might appeal to your good nature.
OK, ass-licking over with.
Doing the Skyline chaps a favour can't be a bad thing in my opinion.

Nicely

Nicely,
sorry to be a pain in the ass (you must be inundated with people looking for info on motors) but could you see if there's anything sinister in the history of my 200sx (K261 BJA).
When I bought it the chap selling said it had had the drivers side door replaced in an accident but a month or so after I bought it I noticed creases on both front wings pointing to a front end bang :eek: .
Thank you in advance,
Jonny

Nicely
15-01-2003, 18:28
Bad news I'm afraid, Jonny. The car was a Cat C insurance loss in May 1998. This means that it was extensively damaged but repairable. The insurance company decided it was uneconomical to repair. Depending on the value of the car in May 98 you can get an idea of the cost of the damage. It would have been over 60% of the then value.

It has also had 3 previous number plates, though these are all clear.

Sorry about that, mate. Might be worth getting it inspected as the MoT is no indication. :(

Dave_S
16-01-2003, 16:03
Hi Nicely,

One more if you will (last one I promise :D )

It's the S14 I just bought today, didnt think about an HPI check .,..

There could be a few reasons for this. It could be something as innocent as a respray, which is quite common in mods circles. More persimistically, it could be down to a respray due to an extensive repair.

As I've said elsewhere on this forum, both HPI and Experian (AA Check) get their information from various sources (both companies share their info by law). If those sources fail to notify, there isn't a great deal either company can do about it. It does happen, though fairly infrequently.

Also, if cars are being insured Third Party, insurance companies don't notify total loss claims in a number of cases.

So be wary, these info checks are very accurate, but not infallible. They're only as accurate as the efficiency of the companies providing the info. You should still do all your usual purchasing checks and, if ever in doubt, WALK AWAY.

Hmmm, interesting. It's a 1991 H reg, and it's not modded in any way (only the alloys I put on). If it is a respray, it's an excellent job - I've never seen the slightest hint of another colour anywhere, either under the bonnet or in the boot. Where would be a foolproof area to check?

When I got it there was no service history (yep, I know, bit of a gamble) but I was happy because I knew the bloke selling it and it was a Nissan dealer. And I have to say that I've had absolutedly nothing go wrong with it at all - just consumables like tyres, battery, exhaust - so I've been more than happy.

Check on the VIN plate on the bulkhead, there will be a colour ode there.

I dont know this for sure but theres a possibility that if yours is a VERY late '91 then it may have been available in black if you happen to have a facelift bumper. Facelifts on an H are almost non-existant though AFAIK.

Sorry to worry you.

The VIN plate says KH 3 G

Facelift bumper - the early ones had two little slits and 'nissan' embossed into the bumper, correct? Mine hasn't got this, so I guess it's a facelift bumper...?

Hi all,

New to the site, my girlies got a white s13. Just had the turbo re-built, found your site when I was looking for info on the sx and what to look out for.

Nicely, can I be cheeky and ask for a check on J871 KAG, should be a clean White s13, cheers.

I'm not a driver, bike rider, not ever learnt to drive even at my ripe old age! But my girlies on her second s13 and loves em. I'm the one that ends up trying to sort em out though, so I'll probably be asking plenty of silly questions in the future ;)

Thanks all.

Nicely,

I'm interested in what you say about third-party write-offs. In this situation, if the accident was the insured's fault then he would receive no money and the car would remain his property. Alternatively ,if it was the third party's fault the third party's insurance company should pay. Is it in both these situatons that the car would remain off the HPI register or just the former?

Do you want to test the latter out on one of my previous cars? - it's not a 200SX though...... :)

Cheers,

Robert.

Hi Nicely, I'm seriously thinking about buying an 89 s13, Reg is G619YTA, Pearl White, 57k. It was an Isle of Mann car re-registered in this country in 98.

There's not much history with it so I've ordered an RAC check on it tomorrow. Seems clean enough, but could you check on it for me?

Many thanks in advance, Ben

Hi Robert,

Yes, you've get the jist of it. If you had third party insurance and someone else wrote your car off, their insurance would have to pay out and, therefore, the car would go onto the relavant condition registers. If you were to blame, your insurance wouldn't cover you and your insurers wouldn't know whether your car was repairable or not. This would be the same for a bumper scratch or mangled irrepairable mess. The difference is that the dodgy repairers out there won't give a fig about repairing a write-off properly if its not on a register (many of them don't give a fig even if it IS). .:mad:

All this means that you can't be absolutely positive of the car's condition and you need to apply some common sense. If someone is selling a car without a V5 (soon to be made very difficult due to DVLA licensing changes), don't touch it - even if they're 'waiting for it back from the DVLA'! If someone is selling a car two to three months after they bought it, be suspicious and ask why. The usual excuse used by repairers in these cases is: "I'm selling it for the wife/mother 'cos they didn't like it." Don't be taken in; even if its a grandad selling it. These people will also never sell the car at their own house, so make sure you only go to view at someone's home and make sure you get invited in for some reason. ;)

If you want me to check the car, I will, but you should have your answer already. :D

Thanks Nicely, yes queried that when I saw the V5, and its when it was brought over from the Isle of man, apparently it had to be re-registered.

Robert.
Another situation where a car might have had major damage and not be recorded at HPI is in `self insured` circumstances.
At our de-fleet centre ( and ALL others, the country over), we repair cars for the big hire and leasing companies. Quite often their cars suffer major damage that would, realistically, render them un-economical repairs. As the lease / hire / finance companies insure themselves, they either repair the cars or auction them off. The auctions are closed to the public and can only be attended by bona- fida traders. You can be pretty sure most of these cars will be repaired. As it is common knowledge that HPI have no record of these cars they sell for a premium as salvage.
This is the most effecient way for them to get as much of their money back on each vehicle as possible, so you can bet it is unlikely to stop.
I would like to add though, that this represents a very small proportion of cars sold and you would be unlikely / unlucky to buy one unwittingly.

Nicely
21-01-2003, 19:09
This is quite true. I had considered mentioning this but due to the rarity overall (certainly in comparison to Third Party issues) I didn't. I have to disagree on one point though; some self-insurers DO notify of uneconomical repair damage. :eek:

Also, any such flaws in the system are not specific to HPI. Experian, who provide the AA car checks, also suffer these discrepancies, as will any other up and coming competition. Information is shared (by law) between the companies, so they share missing data too. :(

tallpaul
21-01-2003, 19:13
Yeah, I agree, a couple of `em do notify HPI etc, but they are in the minority.
It`s more profitable for them to keep quiet about it all. T`is true, every system has it`s flaws / loopholes.

SO, if you buy a car and HPI say it's clear where do you stand if you find out later (and how later is 'later'?) if the car's been repaired?

Do they still compensate you?

It all depends on circumstances. The two main car checking companies offer guarantees as part of the price of a full check. You can get full details from their web sites, but HPI's starts with the following:

Subject to the HPI Guarantee Terms & Conditions, the HPI Guarantee provides up to £10,000 reimbursement of financial losses you suffer arising from inaccurate or incomplete information we supply to you as part of the HPI Check. And as you'd expect from HPI, the cover is more comprehensive than anyone else in the industry offers.

Check out the web sites for more info.

Just to let everyone know that I had an RAC check on this car done. White s13, 1989 (G), wanted £2500 would only drop to £2200. RAC check said it would have major corrosion problems within a year, as well as needing all the bushes etc (normal I guess), and lots more knocks than was disclosed, Chasis number different than v5, milage inconsistancies, no real history etc etc.

RAC seriously warned me off.

So, any one got an s13 they want to sell about the same price?

Nicely, thanks for checking out my future purchase but I'm not clear on the outstanding finance. I spoke to the dealer that's selling it and they say that the finance is theirs but what is the finance that relates to the other registration plate it had?

The reg is T341 TVM

Zonda,

Yeah, looks like it is their finance. However, I would still want them to prove that it is cleared and won't get passed on. Don't worry about the finance on the other plate. It clearly doesn't relate to the S14, therefore is irrelavent. It will be against the car the plate's on now. You only need worry if the other plate's finace was an S14 too...

Ive got a Peugeot 106 that i bought a year and a half ago...

The police called me 2 weeks later as my donor car (escort) was found in leeds by the side of the road, burnt out (which is 100 miles away)

Hi vader,

Yeah, that's right. That's why, if there was a previous plate I say whether that's clear too. It used to be a top scam to change the plates on cars straight after they've been financed so that the new plate showed clear. That also applied to 'write-offs'. Plate change information is now updated very quickly making it difficult to get away with this these days. :)

This is a lively one. It's all clear BUT, it had it's original purple/mauve colour changed to red in 10/1999 and it was exported in 8/2000.

OK except for that. I would look into the finance further if I were you. If you want to sell and someone checks your car, they'll think this finance is still outstanding 'cos it hasn't been cleared off. Either that or it is still outstanding, which is very worrying... :eek:

SunnyP,

If you bought it from a garage, you are covered. Yes, speak to the garage and tell them that it still has a finance interest dating back to before you bought it. This should worry them. If the finance IS still outstanding and got into arrears, the finance company would be speaking to you. However, because you bought from the garage, they are liable because they should have cleared it before selling it (by law).

The garage should check it and see for themselves. Make sure you get it in writting from them that they have cleared it. :)

I can't say who I work for on here I'm afraid. :rolleyes: Someone with insider knowledge, let say... :D

Hi Robbie,

Red S14a. Outstanding finance from 5/2002. Slightly concerning as the last keeper change was 10/2002. :eek: Clean otherwise.

Robbie
07-02-2003, 18:53
I bought it in 10/02 so that's the last keeper change. Bought from a dealer so should be covered. The previous owner had it from 05/02 so that's the finance. She only sold it 'cos it was using too much petrol (I wrote to her after buying). Thanks very much for the super quickinfo and I'll write to the dealer now. At least I know there's nothing too sinister in the history. Thanks once again. :)

RS13 200SX
M864 RCF (1994)
Dark Metallic Blue (TK3)

Part-exchanged with Lookers Nissan Stockport 22/02/03, presumed going to auction.

Good solid, generally rust-free car. Cylinder head replaced by Norris Designs (at whopping cost, I might add.) Sept/Oct 2002. Was traded with a smashed rear bumper, and few paintwork defects. The rear bumper damage caused by a loss of control, and brief meeting with a fence in rain-drenched Stockport one earlyearly morning. The damage appeared to be only to the bumper, with the structure remaining solid and un-bent. Although extensive assessment was never carried out, therefore if you are to look at this car, make sure all is well underneath, as I never managed to afford to.

Car was on a few miles short of 90,000, with me being the owner since 71000. Not bad for a years going, really.

But yes, do the normal checks, and make sure all is well, and if so, you've got yourself a nice, solid, and very-loved-in-her-past 200SX.

-Daniel.

I'm assuming that the plate is NIW4722 as N1W is an invalid format.

I would advise you to pay for a full HPI or AA car check for this one. There are a number of things that don't make sense and would need investigating further. eg date of registration. Either that or don't take the risk.

19-03-2003, 09:17
2nd time we have had to call on Churchills services and they were as efficient back in December when the same thing happened to the S13.....3 days and the cheque was on the way...very helpfull and fast i would recomend them even if they are a little more expensive, at the end of the day you get what you pay for and all that

Doesn't matter guys,yesterday afternoon went like this:

A:hire a car (after Nicley instant responce...ta)

B:drive 181 miles

C:View the motoh........Nice guy but the car was advertised as a touring and it was'nt (not the owners fault as he didnt know the difference).The car had a couple of superficial bumper scrapes and a small removable dent in the lower rear quarter, S plate showing 82k,Dark met blue, fsh, drives well,£5.5k.....not a bad car ...but not what we wanted.

D:drive home another 181 miles.

E:collect a curry on the way home then visit the temple of Stella and pay my regards...lol...hic.lololzzzzz

Got he phone number / location if any one wants it

Nicely
20-03-2003, 09:09
There's enough about to be reasonably selective. The garage that sold mine advertised it as a Touring too. The only thing it had was leather seats! :rolleyes: Didn't realise this at the time, of course, only after I'd been a member a month or so. It was more fuel to my misrepresentation compensation claim against them. :D

Yingtong
20-03-2003, 09:18
Yeah i felt like asking for half of the petrol money.....lol
On the Plus side: took it out for a short test drive ( i dont think this guy had ever used the full power) noises like "whoaa and the fastest i've had is 125....once!!....whoaaa"

The J plate is clean and now on a Jag. The SVZ plate is showing no details. This isn't unusual for a Northern Ireland plate. How recently was it changed back? Dec 2002? Just be extra careful with this one. Check the VIN number (yourself) and send it to me on a PM to double check (DO NOT POST IT).

Eyes closed, fingers crossed...

Much thankness,
