Car Repairs from Accidents Require Documentation
I found this and I am curious. People say dont buy a used car in Qatar as it is often abused or accident-involved. Now i read below as a ruling ;
"It is illegal for any garage in Qatar to carry out any accident or body work repairs on your vehicle without the authorised paperwork from Police and or insurance company."
Now what I get from this is ... all cars will have accident records attached to it by either the police, the insurance companies or even workshops.
My question is, is there a Centralised Database where you can check whether a used car that you are buying has been involved in an accident, major or minor with repairs involved ?
Is there a way that people get around this rule by doing major accident repairs without the required documentations ? If yes, is it prevalent ?
Anyone can comment ...
No I dont understand.
If you are buying a used car, and you are not a trained mechanic, then you may be buying a car involved in a major accident. But you dont know in your 10 minutes test drive.
So the past history of the car is very important to determine how the car will serve you in the future when YOU OWN IT.
Understand ?
Data bank of each car for all of its maintenance/repair at the dealer's workshop is available.
Computer check is also able to detect major accidental cars.
Without police report no workshop would do even the minor repairs where the car's body needs dent removing or repaint.
Useless people in Qatar. Do you see the condition of once newly bought land cruiser and pajero and mitsubhishi being dumped in junkyard in Sanayya. Its owner was once cleaning the car daily 4 times using his naukars . and many were spending thousands for computer inspection.
There is not a single person who did not get a disease. If you could find such a person, then his disease is that he did not get a disease. All cars can get diseases . It is present situation not a past histery which is important...
Understand?
BUT THE BAD THING IS, TILL NOW THERE IS NO DATABASE ARE AVAILABLE TO CHECK WHETHER THE CAR HAS ACCIDENT OR NOT.
No major accident repairs can be carried without permission from the police. No garage will accept vehicles which have met accidents for repairs without the vehicles having a police report. It is illegal for them to carry out any such repairs without a police report. If caught violating the rules, the garage will face stiff penalties possibly leading to closure.
