The head of the expert center, Maxim Shelkov, in an interview with Motor magazine, named the exact signs that can be identified by a car restored after total damage.
For example, the car may have glass, plastic elements or wiring whose year of manufacture differs significantly from that indicated in the documents.
Installing new headlights or taillights on a car under seven years old should also raise questions.
The expert explained that such cars are usually repaired using parts from car dismantling yards, where they do not care about the exact dating of components, which gives away their past.
The current figure has become the highest in the entire history of observations, and the upward trend has not been interrupted since 2017, and the last five years have been marked by a consistent rewriting of records.
Agency experts note that the volume of purchases of used luxury cars in our country has been growing for the ninth year in a row, i.e. since 2017.
The leadership among models in the Luxury segment in the secondary market is held by the Bentley Continental GT, the result of which was 438 cars.
The TOP-5 model ranking of used “luxury” cars in 2025 is completed by Maserati Levante and Rolls-Royce Cullinan (230 and 197 units, respectively).
In the face of emerging difficulties with the supply of cars from China, Russian buyers may have to consider other offers on the market.
The specified engine is 1.8 liters and 90 hp, with a manual transmission.
According to the review, the model is equipped with a 1.6-liter engine producing 121 hp, a manual transmission and all-wheel drive.
The material notes a 1.6-liter engine (150 hp), a seven-speed robotic transmission and all-wheel drive.
