FWIW- afaik, repairs not funded by insurance dont turn up on carfax, can anyone confirm/deny this?

[Spalding]

True.

Same for ICBC reports in BC if the damage is not reported to ICBC...

Best to have a very good inspection.

Carfax pulls up public records, so if it was not reported to the state or insurance it won't show up.

Better than nothing though!
