Manheim urges vigilance to spot flood damage
Manheim is reminding dealers, trading in the areas of the UK ravaged by floods, to be extra cautious when taking in part-exchanges over the next few months, as they may have serious water damage.
Thousands of vehicles submerged in flood water in the Severn Valley, Mid-Wales, West and East Midlands, Yorkshire and the North East are likely to be coming back into the used market in the coming weeks.
Dealers who do not carry out a comprehensive vehicle appraisal on every customer part-exchange could be stuck with flood damaged cars and expensive repair bills.
