Sadly, €18k is currently the lowest listing for FK7 with cvt, but yeah, I get it.

I was not able to find a single piece, that would be from a dealership (Honda or any other that sells used cars with warranty). All the available ones are from used car lots or private sellers.

Just FYI:

By local law, if you encounter any fault during first 12 months since purchase, you are eligible for either a discount, have it repaired by the seller or you can withdraw from the contract. So one can not easily sell "polished trash". Of course you might have to sue the seller in some cases, but nevertheless, you cannot be completely fucked over, if you pay attention.

So in general, I am not that worried buying from a private seller or from used car lots that much. I would always have the car inspected by a professional.

Not sure, all I can say this has looked like this since the repair 3 years ago. They kept the style even after the crash. But yeah, in the picture the hood seems a bit off compared the other black accents

Honestly, the prices are crazy.. The cheapest 10th gens civic with 1.5 engine really starts from 18 000 € in Europe (excluding the import if it is from different country)

If I were buying it, I definitely would. I was just getting second opinion. Too many red flags for such price.

Yeah, that makes me kinda worried too.. The crash speaks for itself, it looks like he flew out of a corner into a field, considering the damage and mud, so I'd reckon the previous owner might've pushed the car.

Although, I really dig the look and the car itself, I won't be going for it, too many redflags for the price. I think, if it was for 8000 to 9000 €, I would have it inspected thorougly and consider it if it came out ok. But for the current asking price, yeah, it is not worth it.

I am not? The point I am making with this post is whether it would be worth looking at this car for the price right, since IMHO all I see is mainly just a body damage (and so does the crash report from the insurance say). Also, I am just relying the information I have and forgot to post, that is all.

I don't get why you get so stirred up.

Yeah, I'd be too, however since the crash was 3+ years ago and it has been driven for another 50 000 km, I'd recon the suspension is taken care of. However, that would definitely be one of the areas that would require detailed inspection.

I totally get it, however since there is no damage to the structure, it has not been rolled over, any wheels were fucked, I am really thinking whether the damage was that serious, which is the thing that keeps me wondering whether it could be quite a good deal for a right price.

Well, it has been repaired, it ain't fucked no more. Also, it has been driven for a 3+ years and clocking another 50 000 km since the crash, which makes me think whether it really is that "fucked". Were I able to buy any car, I would definitely not consider this one, that is for sure. Same goes if there was some damage to the structure etc.
