Damage photos are hosted by the third-party salvage auction site and open in a new tab — we link to them via the One Auto API rather than hosting them. They are not part of the Experian provenance data shown in the History Check above. A salvage record means the vehicle was previously sold at a salvage auction — typically after an insurance write-off.
