What it tells you
- Each time the vehicle was offered at a North-American auction, with the sale date and price
- The primary and secondary damage recorded by the auction house
- The odometer reading at each sale, which is the hardest mileage claim to fake
- The archived lot photographs, showing the car as it actually stood at sale

Limitations
- Coverage is North-American auctions. European-built cars appear when they were imported and sold there, which is common for cars later exported back to Europe.
- Photographs are held by the auction archive and may be withdrawn over time.
- No auction record is not proof the car was never damaged, only that it was never sold through a covered auction.
Individual vehicle records, not a comprehensive accident, title or ownership report. Missing records do not prove a clean history.
