When using used car parts, the quality is of extreme importance. To guarantee the quality of the parts we sell, we have set up a qualification and classification system. We use this to determine the quality of every separate part. You can find a list of the codes we use below:
| TECHNICAL PARTS |
| A |
Until 50000 KM |
D |
Until 200000 KM |

| BODYWORK |
| A1 |
This is "like new" quality. These parts require no extra labour. The part has no rust and no damage. At most, small scratches can be present in the paintwork, which can be removed by polishing |
| A2 |
This is a lightly damaged part without rust. For an older car, this part can mostly be used without any labour. For use on a newer car, this part will definately need a respray. Dents and scratches can be repaired using a small amount of filler |
| A3 |
This is a damaged part without rust which needs some panel beating, filling and respraying. Repairing will take a maximum of 1 hour |
| A4 |
This is a damaged part without rust which needs some panel beating, filling and respraying. Repairing will take more than 1 hour, but no more than 2 hours |
| B1-B4 |
Like A1-A4, but with surface corrosion |
| C1-C4 |
Like A1-A4, but with corrosion, no holes |
| D1-D4 |
Like A1-A4, but with holes from corrosion |
| R1-R4 |
Like A1-A4, rust holes repaired |
| X |
Part has not been tested for quality |
Testing of parts is done by leak-tests, compression measuring, looking, listening, feeling and several other testing methods. We also have equipment to look inside an engine.
B = Brand
F = Verkleurd
P = Parkeersch |
C = Plooi
H = Hagel
R = Opp. roest |
D = Deuk
J = Scheur
S = Opp. Krassen |
E = Verbogen
K = Krom
T = Verfprobleem |
U = Uitdeuken zonder spuiten
L = Rand
|
Damage Locations always follow the same pattern: front to back, top to bottom, left to right (as seen from driver??s seat), in an ??S? pattern, with locations for door handles and mirrors.
The last designation is currently the # of hours a part will need to be repaired to bring it up to a good condition. A credit card will be used to describe how large the spot of damage is.
An ??A? grade part is a part with 1 credit card damage or less. A ??B? grade part is a part with over 1 but not over 2 credit cards size damage; and over 2 credit cards damage will be a ??C? grade part.
Examples: ??2D1? is a one-unit dent in location 2. ??8S2? is a two-unit scratch in location 8. There may be a primary and secondary codes per part, as in ??2D1, 4S2?. A ??0? as a location indicates the entire panel, as in 0H4 (all over hail damage, 4 hours).
