thanks for adding this info for the viewers. the C traders are the worst imo as its people selling thought copart and get the most they often disguise the damage or try to hide it. the last C i bought was a bmw f10, i bided based on the damage i saw when it cant the airbags were al blown and covered with textured vinyl. i got f**ked as i paid way too much thinking the airbags were ok. also go see my rat infested build that was a C listed as "vandalism" completely destroyed by rats.
Only buy Cat S from insurance company, the lot number will have X after. Never buy any Cat S from private sellers (have C or P on windscreen) often private sellers put cars back on they can't fix and hide damage to make it look better. Unrecorded be very careful especially with non runners, engine problems people put them through without a key or disable starter so it won't start for Copart to check.
Thanks for the video, I'm brand freaking new to all this, still in the learning phase. I would love to see a video where you walk us through an actual live bid from start to finish.
Awesome video. It's been a while since i've wanted to get into flipping cars from copart and the video was really insightful and had a lot of good tips. Thanks!
This is great information Dee tips like this can bring a strong following honesty and your craftmanship you will be known across europe in no time. Blessings blood
Thanks for the video. Good beginners insight. One question though. On the screen you mentioned X / P. I've also noticed C & E on the screens too. Any ideas what they mean? I asked Copart and let's just say that they wasn't helpful. Thanks again.😊
I am Dennis from Kenya. I have enjoyed your content. Very informative. I always wanted to buy salvage vehicles from the UK have them fixed and sent to Kenya. This video is very helpful.
Good video bro !! I got small note about the delivery charges ..I found that if you choose a private delivery then Copart he will add 40£ to ur invoice but when you delivered with them they will reserve the 40£ it’s under (Lot Retrieval) on the invoice..so when I calculated I found better to deliver with them!! Waiting for ur reply bro
What do you think of Cat X stolen/recovered minimal damage? I've seen a few cars that keep failing to sell and the main damage was listed as "vin replaced", so was wondering if worth buying?
If you deal in salvage stripping a car and selling the parts copart is a good place to go if your buying to fix and sell then your fingers will get burnt.
Hi bro just had a question . I have done some research and have not been able to find the answer to this question. Please answer if you can. If a car is category N and can be driven. As a private buyer can I drive the car away ? Can I drive away a car with minor body damage home after winning as a private buyer or do I HAVE to use a delivery service ? Thanks
Thank you very informative video regarding the letter after the lot number representing insurance or private seller. Sometimes I also see a letter "c" after the lot number, is that a private seller too ??
BEWARE I purchased a 2015 A5 from my local Copart in Belfast, it had very light frontal damage and undercarriage damage. In the description it stated it was not running. When the A5 was delivered and I had my first chance to view it (because of covid we are still not permitted to view in person) I found that the plastic sump was smashed and the engine was seized solid, so it must have been run with no oil maybe around the Copart yard until it seized. When I asked Copart did they not know about the engine they said it was up to me to inspect the car??? How could I have done that when the yard is closed tto the public?? I was told I should have inspected the pictures, but the picture showing the undercarriage damage was very dark so didn't show the smashed sump. Be very careful when you have to rely on the Copart info and pictures.....
Just come across your channel. Great content. However, Why don't you number your vids for the project builds so one knows what vid is next in line to the previous one watched. Just a suggestion
+Hass I e been experimenting with the titles I’ve had them in that way before. But I always appreciate feedback so I will adjust them. Have a look in my playlists also. They will automatically be in the correct order there too as I’ve arranged them that way.
Great video. I can't find the X for the insurance companies or the P for private sellers. Can you explain where I can find it. Maybe you could do a short video on that too. Thanks.
Great content. Quick question say you buy a car that’s road worth and you have the log book and MOT is valid, can you drive off with it provided that you’ve insured and taxed it?
Thanks, i use to do that all the time, train down to Copart, valid mot, trade insurance and tax it on the spot then drive home. But copart have a NEW rule that the car must leave their yard on a trailer/recovery truck. Or they wont release it. What people do is hang around outside and pay a local or passing recover guy to just bring it out. Then drive away
Great video I'm curious about stolen recovered in 2012 I had been paid out for my 06 Mk5 GT TDI 140 i was notified it had been found 3 or 4 months lay to my knowledge I don't think any damage was done I don't know what insurance company did with it as by chance from it being stolen my policy ran out before I was paid out, anyway are stolen recovered worth buying . thanks going enjoy your channel.
@@SALVAGENATION Nice one, you dont have Wolverhampton listed in your description? Do you by any chance have the free tel no for them. Any help appreciated. Thanks
Hey bro... I was thinking! What about category U stolen car ? What you think about? What’s the common risk you have to buy a copart stolen recover car? Thanks
no it can have no damage youre not allowed to drive anything home, what you can do is go there and get a local company to drop it by the place to save money, they will still make you pay a lot though.
Bruv what’s the deal when seeing the vehicles at CoPart yard ? Can you run and test the engines, that kind of thing. Bodywork is one thing, engine, gbox a whole other matter. Many thanks my friend.
Question if on the Auction a lot is listed as V5 Yes. Do Copart send the logbook off? Do they supply the V5C for new keeper to tax. When is V62 form used?
If its yes they will give u the logbook when u collect the car. Make sure u check as they “forget to give it” but it means the car comes with the logbook
Great info here. If V5 is not with the car, you say 6 weeks for a new log book does mean you've added an extra owner on the car? Or is there a way to get round this?
Yep thts right. What I do sometimes is take my buyer to the Postoffice and let them fill the v62 and tax the car at the same time, the I pay the fees and post it. Then the new logbook comes to them directly.
Its a good thing means the car’s engine is starting and runnin. But the car isn’t able to drive. Normally see this when the car has suspension damages etc.
They are great but equally bad, they sell alot of doctored cars and you need to be careful when buying from them as they are only the middle men so will happily sell what ever car!
there ok, but will be headache to sell on. like imaging explaining to a buyer, i know it says stolen on the hpi check but its legit! lol. hard cos the marker will remain in the cars history and show on a hpi check.
Private sale. So like any member of the public who sold they’re car via Copart. STAY AWAY!!! I stick to the X at the end. There all insurance companies
Great content bro 👌🏾
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Q = Scrappage scheme C = Trade (some private sellers) X N F E P are insurance companies/fleet

What about letter P?
@@cartrader3002 this is for personal if I am right, I think this video states P
Very good content and info. I’m looking at buying my first car from copart and you have helped me out 👍

No never saw f
6:15 X is insurance and P is private, what is C? I've heard it means Copart-owned but i'm not sure if I should be purchasing these types of cars
You have been amazing just a quick question how kind did Copart to deliver your car
I get my own delivery
@@SALVAGENATION have you ever used Copart delivery

Hey bro... I was thinking! What about category U stolen car ? What you think about? What’s the common risk you have to buy a copart stolen recover car? Thanks
Brother if i win a car , can i go my self to pick up and drive home with Cat n?
no it can have no damage youre not allowed to drive anything home, what you can do is go there and get a local company to drop it by the place to save money, they will still make you pay a lot though.
Hello my friend, where do you usually sell your vehicles? Can you help ?
Bruv what’s the deal when seeing the vehicles at CoPart yard ? Can you run and test the engines, that kind of thing. Bodywork is one thing, engine, gbox a whole other matter. Many thanks my friend.
Yes u can but since covid copart were not allowing viewings
Question if on the Auction a lot is listed as V5 Yes. Do Copart send the logbook off? Do they supply the V5C for new keeper to tax. When is V62 form used?
If its yes they will give u the logbook when u collect the car. Make sure u check as they “forget to give it” but it means the car comes with the logbook
Do we pay tax when buying the vehicle? Do u know about this one ? (vat to be added to final sale price : no )
it’s like that
There are some questions in v62 form which requires previous owner details, how do you do that because you don’t know them?
Great info here. If V5 is not with the car, you say 6 weeks for a new log book does mean you've added an extra owner on the car? Or is there a way to get round this?
Yep thts right. What I do sometimes is take my buyer to the Postoffice and let them fill the v62 and tax the car at the same time, the I pay the fees and post it. Then the new logbook comes to them directly.
If you google vehicle enquiry and enter the ref, it will say if it can be taxed at the post office or not.
Where do you get your second hand engines, bumpers and pannels please?
Ebay, or i buy my own breakers
What kind of insurance do you have? Do you insure each car individually or do you have a traders insurance policy?
Trade
hello brother, could you please kindly tell me what is meaning of (Engine start program).
thanks.
Its a good thing means the car’s engine is starting and runnin. But the car isn’t able to drive. Normally see this when the car has suspension damages etc.
I see the p and the x at the end of lot numbers but what's the Q about ???
Love the videos, what does D on the windscreen @ copart mean?
I don’t k what the d means. The x means the car is from insurance and c/p is a personal sale. Not sure on the d
@@SALVAGENATION Cheers, most I’ve seen seem to have D bottom left of the windscreen, perhaps it means Drives?
@@marksutton89 dealer
@@kriswright2593 I’ve since learnt it means Drives, R = received (at the yard) 1 or 2 = number of keys
@@marksutton2622 what does N mean? What about A?

What is the letter at the end of lot number e.g . C
Great channel - but want to see your cat in the videos!😂
Awe this video was old, hes now gone to a new home after we had the baby. (Baby is 3 now!) haha
Not allowed to look at cars anymore don't want members on site says at all really.
Hi how much do u think a car with a retail value of £6500 would sell on copart?
What’s C indicates on windscreens with lot number , I know X means insurance sale and P means private sale please help
C is also private customers i believe
Is it easy to make profit off copart? Do you know ppl that have? (or have you yourself)
Hi, looking at the reviews for Copart, they are not good, what are your experience dealing with them?
They are great but equally bad, they sell alot of doctored cars and you need to be careful when buying from them as they are only the middle men so will happily sell what ever car!
Very nice talking!👍
what if there is cat s with minimal damage, is it a trap in most cases?
Often its a previous repair… best to do a hpi check. I still wouldn’t trust those
Can copart sell cat N with engine damage ? Or would that be a diffrent cat
They can yes. Cat n and cat s is strictly the body of the car
@@SALVAGENATION ok thanks bro
Is it possible to get finance for the car with cat s,N,x,d?
