Summary

Kia Cerato 2006 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Kia Cerato 2006: VIN Y6LFE22726L002571, production year 2006, mileage 200k km, lpg / petrol engine, manual gearbox and an asking price of $2,999. 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. 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 $2,935 to $4,930 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 — 3, transfers — 1, plate changes — 0, years in the registry — under a year. The latest recorded operation: Sold to a new owner on 19.05.2021. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: A moderate number of owners (3) — typical for the car’s age. There were transfers but the plate stayed the same — the history was not broken up by plate changes. The car appeared in Ukraine recently — the history is short, its origin matters.
