Video glossary of car damage and auction labels
The audio track is kept. Full subtitles are not ready yet.
The glossary helps you tell apart the damage zone, the start status, the document and the part name. The video shows these topics on separate cards; a start status is not an overall safety assessment.
How to use the glossary
- Damage labels: for example, Secondary Damage and Rollover.
- A separate group covers starting and documents, including Run and Drive.
- Body terms include crash boxes and geometry reference points.
Body illustration: VW Golf 8 GTI, GT Cars: Hyperspeed (CC BY, credited in the video). It does not show the measured geometry of a specific car.
The explanations in the video do not replace the exact definitions and terms of a specific auction.
