Summary

Skoda Octavia 2002 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Skoda Octavia 2002: VIN TMBBE41U832680046, production year 2002, mileage 357k km, lpg / petrol engine, automatic gearbox and an asking price of $3,000. 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 $3,000 to $5,500 with a median of $4,200, and this offer is below the market: 29% under the median. This is not always a problem, but such a difference deserves extra attention to the car's condition, documents, registration history.

Insight: The price is abnormally low — a higher risk of hidden problems.

History & registrations

The report includes state registry data: owners — 1, transfers — 1, plate changes — 0, years in the registry — 2. The latest recorded operation: Authorised user added (power of attorney) on 19.02.2022. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: Re-registrations happened within one owner — the real owner did not change. There were transfers but the plate stayed the same — the history was not broken up by plate changes. Transfers without plate changes — possible re-registrations to trusted persons without a change of the real owner.
