lupo_1.0 Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 fooking hell that dont look too good. but like said at least you are ok that all that really matters.looking at the pic it maybe a write off. dont know how much you have said the cars worth tho.roof piller or damage to the roof? they rear 1/4 would have to be cut and a new welded in the full side respray so it will all add up. you could always just buy the car back but if you was going to update the car then maybe just wait like you said.

simpo Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Category A The vehicle may not be resold it must be crushed. Severely damaged, total burnout or flood damage with no serviceable parts, or already a stripped out shell. DVLA will require a "Notification of Destruction". Category B The vehicle may not be resold. It will have been damaged beyond economical repair, usually with major structural damage. The DVLA will require "Notification of Destruction" but parts can be removed and sold on. Category A you sure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Category A you sure?yes because from what i've been told most of the structural safety points have been damaged beyond repair along with alot of the mounting points, etcso im guessing its bordering Cat A Cat B wirte off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simpo Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 (edited) Fair enough bud, tbh doesn't matter really either. From what I've read a category a, means nothing is salvageable and the car is literally scrap. Where as category b where the cars pretty fudged but some bits, interior, engine parts ect are salvageable. Thinks its probably a category b, but like said its not important at least you are fine the rest can be replaced.
