A simple Answer TO yOUr Question

What reduces my car's value the most?

Accident history reported on a vehicle history report has one of the largest impacts on value. High mileage relative to the car's age is the second biggest factor. Poor mechanical condition, major cosmetic damage, and missing service records also reduce value significantly. Buyers who check vehicle history reports will see accident reports even if the car looks fine externally, and they price that in accordingly.
