I love the way the ad says new wishbones and shocks prior to accident at cost of 5K. Then further down it lists the wishbones as needing to be replaced as damaged.

Its a bit like saying i had new tyres 12 thousand miles ago, they are still knackered now though or It's just had a new windscreen at ££££'s but you need a new one.

Surely spares only. I imagine it's repairable but at what cost? Got to be £25-30k of knackered about that. May as well buy one that's not fecked.

Still, I love the Alcantara interior.

Yes...saw this last night...never understood how CATs are decided on...it looks like a braker only as others have said...in fact it makes the one on Eurospares look prestine.

Will be a lot of salvageable bits on it...maybe 10k worth...but not one for the roads.

Shattered rocker cover, you would have to strip the engine to be sure of clearing the ingested parts; it is a parts car only, you would struggle to make much at that.

Just noticed the seller location is Romford :) says the car is in Waltham Abbey mind...

That is never repairable surely........Shame to see it like that.

It only needs a bit of detailing on the bodywork and all will be good ! NOT

I dont think it could even be turned into a trackday car. cracked rocker cover "easy fix " yeah right. There is a hole in it and you can see the impact mark where the car structure has been shunted back into it.

It's now over 8k so i can only assume that whoever is bidding on it plans to bring it back it life. Could soon be on a garage forecourt near you. Worrying to say the least.

considering mine had a broken bumper, light, 2 wheels and 4 tyres and its so far up to 24K in bills - i dont bloody think so. That's parts only and they're all knacked.

That is fecked IMO, but it is surprising what some people will rebuild, the parts bill alone would eat up any profit surely (we all know Maser prices aren't cheap)

It's not just the prices but also delivery time to get the parts.Ordered from eurospares lhs boot carpet and took 3 weeks to arrive just to discover it's the wrong part!Now send it back and wait another 3-4 weeks to get the right one!
