In the Oman market, it is important to check the used car history. Through AutoData's services, the VehicleReport also checks if the car is imported. This is important because approximately 2 out of every 3 imported vehicles have had some sort of issues in their original country. This may be a total loss as a result of an accident, fire, or flood. Or it may be some form of factory issue and recall. It may even be reported as stolen. In the case of the latter, you shouldn't be buying the car. And if the vehicle has been declared a total loss before, then the price should be a lot lower. You can also check the 'local' accident history in Oman by going to the motor vehicle department's website and search on the Vehicle Identification Number.
You can find all this information in the history section of the VehicleReport.
