Asked by Bronwyn Kershler
I AM ashamed to admit that I failed to negotiate a car park exit correctly and our 2000 V8 Holden Caprice sustained some minor panel damage to the front and a few scrapes and a tiny dent to the back door. The leather interior is in excellent condition, the car has been fully maintained and most of the kilometres are from distance driving. Is it cost-effective to repair this cosmetic damage before we sell?
Answered by CarsGuide
28 Mar 2008A GOOD-LOOKING car tells the prospective buyer that it's been well looked after. Scratches and dents say the owner doesn't care. It doesn't sound as if it will cost much to get it looking pristine again. With the damage clearly visible, a buyer would expect a discount on the asking price.
