Was for sale a couple of years ago, as raised a big debate over the Cat B status. Nice ornament!

 

[Parisien]

Thanks for that.....wonder why its reappeared or if it was ever sold back then

Run!

Too many holes to be worth it. No history, Cat B issues, I doubt there is photographic repair evidence, you'd need a thorough inspection, you'd want to spend £2k getting it up to scratch.

Run!

I didn't think you could resell Cat B? I thought they were for breaking only.

Cat C & D are repairable the former requiring an engineers inspection and Cat A is scrap only.

The insurance companies say cat b is for breaking only, not dvla/vosa, so the few that slip through the insurance company/salvage companies net are free to go back on the road

I also thought CAT B was not to go back on the road...

A scary thought?

Parts only in my eyes...trim looks ok

Not sure this is that much of a bargain. Cat B must have a significant impact on resale price and it still has some issues which need sorting. So if you put £3-4k in it to fix the remaining issues you have a £12-13k investment factor in the mileage and compare against the going rate of a good Spyder and there isn't much difference.

Personally I would leave well alone and buy a decent one to start with

I concur. As much as I love these things it's an absolute no-brainer; walk away. Quickly.
