HPI and Accidents

[Brooko]

Does any accident show up on an HPI or any car check no matter how small it was, say just a replacement bumper that was claimed for or is it only Cat D/C stuff like that shows up?

only cat abcd show up as far as RTI damage goes, you need a MIAFTR report to delve deeper.....

and cant you only get them if your in the bodyshop trade or something?

 

[172 Dave]

yup or insurance or other suspect vehicle related employment

Wierd, my mate works in a body shop and I said to him that only cat D and stuff like that goes on HPI, but he swore blind that even the smallest accident goes on record and will show up with a check. Obviously gobsh*teing then!

Only cat c/d will show up on hpi. Small bumps claimed on insurance don't.

Even if the car is smashed too pieces, if it is paid for by the owner nothing will show up.
As hpi is insurance asessed.

Whats cat c exactly?

it only goes on if the isurance put it on the register so if a bumper replace goes through the insurance it goes on
