This is the report you get.

The same format and the same evidence as for your car — a recommendation, problems ranked by how serious they are, photos with a time and, where allowed, GPS.

Recommendation

Don't buy

Structural repair to the rear chassis rail, hidden under fresh underseal. Mechanically the car is sound, but repaired crash damage of this kind is undisclosed and materially changes the value and safety.

Asking
€14,900
Recommended price
€11,400
Overpay risk
−€3,500

Negotiation points

The recommendation is don't buy. If you negotiate anyway, these are the facts you hold: the rear chassis rail repair was never disclosed, and it is documented with a photo, coordinates and a timestamp — ask for the service history behind it. The underbody corrosion is costed at €500. The rest of the €3,500 below the asking price is what an undisclosed structural repair costs you at resale. Do not accept "it's cosmetic" without paperwork.

Problems

Structural weld, rear chassis rail

Dangerous

Non-factory weld seam and filler under fresh underseal — consistent with repaired rear-impact damage, not disclosed by the seller. Paint depth at the rear quarter measured 412 µm against a factory baseline of about 110 µm.

Corrosion, front subframe mount

Major

Surface-to-flaking corrosion at the left subframe mounting point. Not structural yet; will need attention within 12 months.

Uneven tyre wear, front axle

Minor

Inner-edge wear on both front tyres suggests the alignment is out — cheap to correct, worth checking the cause. Tread depth measured 3.1 mm inner against 6.8 mm outer.
