The car object
One physical vehicle with its specs, all listings visible to your key, and, on detailed endpoints, full reports. Attributes a source didn't supply are usually omitted rather than set to null.
Unavailable root attributes are often omitted. Nested values may be null. /search returns availability flags without full report arrays; /cars and exact lookups attach reports. Listings are restricted to the key/domain scope but may include other listings of the same merged car. Never assume the first listing is the requested one.
Opaque internal car identifier. Preserve it as a string.
Always included, as true or false. true when the car has at least one public, published inspection on one of its listings; false when it has none. /search, /cars and /cars/{car_id} return the stored flag, so it can be true while inspections is empty (for example when the report belongs to a listing outside your source scope). /listing/{domain_id}/{listing_id} recomputes it from that listing only. Render reports from the inspections array; use the flag for badges and filters.
Always included, as true or false. true when at least one public vehicle history report is linked to a listing in your scope; false otherwise. Detailed endpoints recompute it from the returned vehicle_history_reports. For a per-source badge, use listings[].has_history_reports.

1 = left (left-hand drive); 2 = right (right-hand drive). The response is an id/name object; the search filter accepts the integer ID. Omitted when unavailable, or null when the stored value cannot be resolved.

SHA-256 of serialized vehicle data excluding root created_at/updated_at and listing created_at/last_seen_at/updated_at. Includes location_details, so adding this field or changing localized names can change the hash.
