Summary

Opel Vectra 1998 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Opel Vectra 1998: VIN W0L0JBF35W1249575, production year 1998, mileage 440k km, lpg / petrol engine, automatic gearbox and an asking price of $1,600. 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 $1,520 to $3,500 with a median of $2,200, and this offer is below the market: 27% 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 — 4, transfers — 3, plate changes — 1, years in the registry — 1. The latest recorded operation: Sold to a new owner on 12.06.2021. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: Many owners (4) — frequent resales usually have a reason. The plate was changed 1 time — such changes can split the history into separate episodes. The car appeared in Ukraine recently — the history is short, its origin matters.
