Post by: mortygttdi on October 11, 2009, 12:53:53 am: There is no way on this planet that is anywhere near a cat D more like a Cat b maybe a cat C at a push but that roof needs re-skining and every panel on the N/S needs replacing :scared:

I would give Â£3000 so I could strip it for parts then sell the engine and drive train on thats about as much has its worth, would have been a nice car pre-accident esp with such a spec has it is with the recaro's, sat nav, dsg and highline MFSW.

Make that "WAS".....9k??? Avin' a tin baff. Total loss and if not...imagine trying to move it on later...

Post by: vRStu on October 11, 2009, 08:09:29 am: I'd say that was at best a CAT C myself.

Pretty sure it'd be a new shell to do it properly, the A Pillar has gone too hasn't it.

At 9 large you couldn't turn a profit on that even if you bought all the parts off eBay let alone trying to buy new.

I did an Elise up last year and trying to source the parts used is just a nightmare. So many people looking for them that it often puts the prices above the dealer price.

Post by: bennylenny88 on October 11, 2009, 01:36:01 pm: haha! ill offer him Â£3k at the most for that! :stupid:
Title: Re: R32 slight damage (not)
Post by: Jules86 on October 12, 2009, 10:37:03 am: Probly worth close to that in parts?

Seats are Â£2k alone, engine is about Â£2k.

He is stupid to sell it as if you could fix it. I rekon he could get about Â£6-7k from splitting it.
