Well, don’t think so. I’d think twice before even considering a salvaged titled car. That could mean that a previous insurance company totalled it out.

You may find it hard to get a loan on such a vehcile. They didn’t put salvage on the title for nothing. There’s something wrong with it that while may be repairable, it’ll be too expensive to justify.

The insurance is not any different on a salvage or a clean title. A salvage/rebuilt title is issued when a car receives damage in excess of 60% of it’s value. Repairs were made, and the car was inspected for road worthiness. Most people do not want to buy a salvage vehicle, they oftentimes have multiple problems, breaking down often. When selling a salvage, you are expected to tell the buyer about the brand on the title, otherwise you are deceiving the potential buyer. I see no advantage in a salvage, and many disadvantages. If you want to know what happened to cause the car to be damaged severely, request the records. It will show what happened, when, and what was repaired.

Salvage is salvage just like junk is junk. Will the insurance be cheaper, it should if you can find someone that will insure it.

Insuring this vehicle will be a liability to the insurance company depending on how bad it was wrecked or just what is wrong with it.
