Summary

Daewoo Nubira 1998 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Daewoo Nubira 1998: VIN KLAJF356EWK168977, production year 1998, mileage 360k km, lpg / petrol engine, manual gearbox and an asking price of $1,999. Such a check helps to quickly understand how well a specific car matches the market, whether the price looks suspiciously low and whether the mileage is typical for this year.

Insight: The car is over 15 years old — running costs are higher; the key inspection points are the body and anti-corrosion treatment. High mileage — service history and the condition of the engine and gearbox are decisive. LPG is indicated — the legality of the installation and the registered conversion matter.

Market position

Based on current data, year ±2). Market prices range from $1,100 to $4,900 with a median of $1,850, and this offer is within the market: 8% over the median. This is not always a problem, but such a difference deserves extra attention to the car's condition, documents, registration history and possible bargaining.

Insight: The price is in line with the market — a balanced offer. Wide price spread — the final value depends heavily on trim, condition and mileage.

History & registrations

The report includes state registry data: owners — 2, transfers — 0, plate changes — 0, years in the registry — 5. The latest recorded operation: Sold to a new owner on 05.10.2021. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: A moderate number of owners (2) — typical for the car’s age.
