how bad can it be ?

saw this on ebay, its in better nick than mine yet its scrap, makes me wonder what on earth is wrong with it , guesses on a postcard to .. . . .

Engine blown up maybe ? Surely the small bump its had can't have made it a right off . .


Nice wheels etc for someone, if I thought it was the same colour as mine I could fancy the tailgate . . Whistle

I checked the gumtree ad, why would they say "BREAK ONLY VEHICLE - FULL CARS ARE NOT FOR SALE!"

unless its stolen ? Shocked Surely any decent mechanic could fix that up, what a waste. Whistle 2017 SEAT Ateca 4drive 2.0 xcellence (May 2022 -

A neighbour's Volvo C30 was hit in the side, the owner said there appeared to be very little damage, he liked the car wanted to keep it but it was written off. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

I would think most early FL2 cars will be Cat D for what would seem back in the day as just minor damage if it now involves claim handlers (Yorkshire Dialect Meaning - Thieves in suits) .

Remember that written of means that the cost of repair is around 60% of the value of the vehicle so a £10k car with not a lot of visible damage can be written off with a £4k repair bill. My brother in law had a bump in his Jimny which wrote it off so they paid him and then he bought it off the insurance company and fixed it up himself. Ended up in profit! Sold it on a year or two later. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
