How to Spot an Accident or Flood-Damaged Car in the UAE
To spot a previously damaged car, check for mismatched paint, uneven panel gaps, replaced parts, rust or a musty smell, and damp or stained carpets that hint at flooding. Always get an independent inspection. Carology inspects and RTA-verifies every car, so damaged cars are filtered out before sale.
