In short - no.
If the insurance company has paid for a repair and not 'written off' the car is not recorded on any database other than that of the insurance company and that will be private between them and policy holder.
A good eye is the only way, or an honest seller.
Don't worry too much though, there will be thousands and thousands of cars that have had repairs from minor to major, all unrecorded because the insurance paid for repair. Then there are those cars that get repaired with no insurance company in the loop, where someone decides not to claim, settle outside of insurance, can be absolutely no record then if cash gets paid to a repair shop.
Many new cars will get damaged during transit and storage and need minor work before they are even sold!

Eyes of a hawk.
With a good repair the answer should be no.
But my god I have seen some shoddy work. I am pretty convinced there is an accident repair centre somewhere in the UK with Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles and David Blunkett doing the paintwork. I think it is located on a very sandy beach, and only opens at night. The supplier they use presumably only sells spray cans aswell....
