Our loves does cloud our judgement and often gains the upper hand.

1. Structural Repairs

One should never hide any structural repair details if the car has undergone any. Structural repair in layman terms comprises of all the major damages to the structure of the car. For example, the accidental damage and all the damage history including pillar repairs, door change, boot repair, bonnet repair, etc.

2. Documentation Details

Apart from hiding the damage, one should also never hide the flaws with any documentation. For example, ownership details of the vehicle, damaged or fake RCs, pending documents, etc. This will not only put you in trouble but, might put you behind bars.
