Repairable, Salvage and Damaged Nissan Versa for Sale
Showing results 1 - 24 of 576
576 Nissan Versa lots for sale across 172+ Copart locations — model years 2007–2025, avg. mileage 104,000 mi. 18% clean title, 80% salvage; Front End is the top damage (57%). Bids start at $200, and recent Nissans sold for a median winning bid around $1,750 before fees across the make — a Versa usually lands below that, since its low retail value limits what a repair can recover.
The Versa is Nissan's entry-level compact, and only a modest number trade here in a given stretch — enough to see a pattern, not quite enough to print a firm model median. Across the make a recent Nissan sold for a median winning bid near $1,750 before fees, and a Versa generally sells under that, because the car's low new-car price caps what any buyer will pay for a repair project. That's also why it totals easily — a moderate hit that a pricier car would absorb often exceeds the Versa's value outright, so even light-looking damage can carry a salvage brand. Most stay in the US, picked up locally or shipped in-country.
Three generations are in play. The first (2007–2012) came as a sedan or a taller hatchback, badged Tiida elsewhere, with a 1.8 four and either a CVT or a conventional automatic. The redesigned second generation (2012–2019) split the hatchback off as its own Versa Note nameplate and kept the Versa name for the sedan, most running a 1.6, with the CVT as the common transmission — a shudder or hesitation on takeoff is the same warning sign worth checking that shows up across Nissan's CVT lineup. The current generation, redesigned for 2020, dropped the hatchback entirely and moved to a sedan-only lineup with a revised 1.6. Mechanically these are simple, front-wheel-drive economy cars — thin sheet metal keeps repair costs low, but it also means the frame rails fold more easily on a hard front hit than on a heavier sedan, so check for that before assuming a "light" front-end code is actually light. A clean-title Versa with cosmetic-only damage is about the cheapest way into a running Nissan; when the shell's done, non-repairable Versa lots still move for the drivetrain and interior.
Buying is quick: register free — no dealer license — set a maximum bid and the system bids up to that cap, or take a car at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.

FAQ
What condition are these Versas in?
About 576 lots, 80% on a salvage title and the rest clean or rebuilt. Damage skews toward the top-listed type (Front End), and mileage averages about 104,000. Both the sedan and the hatchback body styles show up.
Is a salvage Versa worth buying?
Often yes for cheap, basic transportation. There's no reliable model price here — too few sell to set one — but recent Nissans sold for a median winning bid around $1,750 before fees across the make, and a Versa typically comes in under that given its low retail value. A folded unibody or a shuddering CVT is where the math stops working.
What should I check before bidding?
Frame rails on any front hit first, since thin sheet metal folds easily on this platform. Then the CVT on 2012-and-newer cars — a "runs and drives" note with no mechanical damage code is the minimum. Cross-check the title brand against the photos; they don't always agree.
Can I insure and register a salvage Versa?
Only after it's rebuilt and passes a state inspection — then most insurers will cover it, just not the company that totaled it. While it's salvage-titled it can't be road-registered. Check with your insurer before you bid.
How does the auction work?
Register free, no dealer license. Set a maximum bid and the system bids for you up to that cap, or take a lot at its Buy Now price. Win it, pay the invoice plus fees, then pick up, ship or export.
How do I check a Versa's history before bidding?
Every lot shows the VIN, damage type and title brand. Run the VIN through a vehicle-history report for prior accidents, mileage and title events before you commit.
What are good alternatives to the Versa?
Buyers cross-shop the Toyota Yaris and Honda Fit, or the Hyundai Accent for another budget-friendly option. All three cover the same entry-level ground.
