This makes it all the more annoying when the newly purchased car is involved in an accident after a short time. Many new car owners then ask themselves whether they are entitled to a new car to replace the defective new car after an accident that was not their fault. After all, the car has hardly been driven and is unreasonable for many as an accident car. But what exactly are your rights here?

Many not only use their car to express their love of motoring, but also use brands, models and equipment as a status symbol. New cars not only cost a lot of money, but are also customised to the driver's needs thanks to a choice of configurations and equipment. This makes it all the more annoying when the new car is involved in an accident through no fault of its own shortly after registration and suffers damage.<\/p><p>In addition to the annoyance of scratches, dents and damage, many owners are concerned with a much more important question: what about depreciation and who actually replaces the status of the new car? Because even if a vehicle is only a few days, weeks or months old - after an accident, the vehicle counts as an accident vehicle and loses a lot of value. This is noticeable at the latest when reselling. But the feeling of driving an accident-damaged car instead of a new one is also a sour feeling for many car enthusiasts.

This is because case law has defined certain criteria for this case, which drivers and insurance companies can invoke. This can mean that after an accident there is a desire for a new car, but the insurance company may refuse it. But when is a car actually considered a new car and when can drivers receive a new car?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a0c46f8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a0c46f8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>A car is considered new if:<\/strong><\/p><ul><li>the vehicle was registered less than one month ago<\/li><li>the mileage is less than 1,000 kilometres<\/li><li>there is considerable damage due to the accident<\/li><li>you actually buy a new car after the accident<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21341cf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"21341cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>While criteria such as the date of registration and the speedometer reading are clear reference points, the aspect of \"significant damage\" repeatedly leads to disputes. This is because there is no clear definition for this, which means that insurance companies may set different standards than drivers and experts. However, there are now a number of court judgements that stipulate, for example, that significant damage always exists if even a repair cannot come close to restoring the previous addition. For example, if safety-relevant components have been damaged or welding work has to be carried out on load-bearing components. In the case of particularly serious damage, a claim for a new car may still be possible up to a mileage of 3,000 kilometres. The principle of reasonableness applies here. This means that drivers are only entitled to a new car after an accident that was not their fault if it would be unreasonable for them to continue driving the repaired accident vehicle.\u00a0<\/p><p>If the insurance company agrees to replace the new car, it is also important that you buy a new car. It is not possible to have the damaged car repaired and continue driving it and at the same time collect the money for a new car in order to go on holiday. You must therefore also invest the amount you receive for your defective vehicle in a new car and may not use the money for any other purpose.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-413f420 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"413f420\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"wer-muss-eine-erhebliche-wertminderung-fuer-neuwagen-nachweisen\" title=\"Who has to prove a significant reduction in value for new cars?\">Who has to prove a significant reduction in value for new cars?<\/h2><p>In principle, the owner of the new car has the burden of proof when it comes to making a claim for significant damage. Expert reports that prove the damage and the associated reduction in value are usually helpful for this. However, despite an expert opinion, the insurance company may refuse to recognise the significant damage as such. In this case, often only a lawyer can help. To avoid such disputes and at the same time secure your claims, it is advisable to work with traffic law experts from the outset.

The colloquial name \"transfer licence plate\" is misleading. Although the licence plates are used to bring purchased vehicles to the customer, they may only be used by certain dealers. Private individuals, on the other hand, are not allowed to use them to drive their car from A to B. Not even from the dealer to their home or from there to the registration office. This is why it is not insignificant when drivers with a red licence plate get into an accident. If the red licence plate is properly used by the dealer, the dealer is also legally insured. So if a dealer causes an accident with a car with a red licence plate and damages your car, the damage will be covered by the relevant insurance company as normal.\u00a0<\/p><p>If the dealer gets into an accident with a car with a red licence plate through no fault of his own - for example when transferring it to the customer or driving it to the registration office - the insurance company of the person responsible for the accident covers all costs. However, as these are often new cars, an accident is particularly annoying. The dealer suffers a considerable loss in value, as the car involved in the accident is suddenly no longer a new car. It can therefore neither be sold as a new car nor handed over as such to the customer, who may have already paid for the car. This reduction in value is usually also compensated by the other party's insurance company so that a new car can be procured. Any other claims, such as for the waiting time now incurred by the customers of the dealer involved in the accident, are charged separately.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e6a683 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8e6a683\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"die-richtigen-schritte-zur-fairen-schadensregulierung\" title=\"The right steps for fair claims settlement\">The right steps for fair claims settlement<\/h2><p>Do you want to know what claims you are entitled to after your new car accident?
