සිංහල Fewer warranty claims
Norwegian dealers using condition reports consistently see fewer post-sale disputes. When the buyer knows the car’s condition upfront, there’s nothing to argue about afterwards.
Platform · Condition Report
The document that sells the car, and protects the dealer.
Used car buyers want to know exactly what they’re getting. Dealers want fewer complaints after the sale. The B.U.S. Condition Report delivers both, a professional, photo-rich report that shows the vehicle’s real condition in plain language. Norwegian dealers using condition reports see fewer warranty claims. Not because the cars are better, but because there are no surprises.

What’s in the report
Photos and damage markings
Every finding documented with photos. Damage is marked directly on vehicle diagrams. So the buyer sees where it is, not just what it is. No ambiguity.
Plain language descriptions
Written for buyers, not mechanics. "Light scratch on rear bumper, 8 cm, cosmetic only", not a technical code. The buyer reads it and understands immediately.
Before and after
When the workshop has repaired items identified in the appraisal, the report shows the finished state. The buyer sees a vehicle that’s been properly prepared.
Digital delivery
Delivered as an interactive web page (shareable via link) and as a downloadable PDF. Ready to attach to online listings, send by email, or show on a tablet in the showroom.
Why it matters, the numbers
Faster time to sale
A vehicle with a condition report attached to the listing stands out. Buyers spend less time wondering and more time deciding.
The standard in Scandinavia
In Norway, three out of four used car transactions include a condition report. B.U.S. brings the same standard to your market. No local regulation required for it to be valuable.
How it’s created
The condition report is the output of the appraisal process in B.U.S.test. It’s not a separate system or extra step. It’s the natural result of doing the inspection properly.
-

Who uses it
Dealers
The condition report becomes your sales tool. Attach it to every listing, hand it to every buyer. It positions you as the dealer who has nothing to hide.
Importers and groups
Set the condition report as standard across your dealer network. Every location, every appraisal, the same quality of documentation.
Leasing and fleet
Document vehicle condition at lease start, return and resale. When there’s a dispute about a scratch that "wasn’t there before". There’s a photo that says otherwise.
Marketplaces and platforms
Integrate condition reports via API to give your listings a quality stamp. Buyers trust listings with documented conditions.
