I wondered if it was Cat of sorts - can’t see where it says it though.

What, you mean you can't see the top of the second paragraph which says.


"THIS CAR Has HAD PREVIUOS DAMAGE BEFORE.RECORDED AS A CAT S"

A structurally damaged written off car is worth typically 3/4 of the price of an undamaged equivalent car.

No, I can’t.
This is all I have on my screen.


Obviously had I seen it, I wouldn’t have posted...


Edit - I see the problem... my iPad wouldn’t let me scroll up - now seen the description.
As you were.
Took my breath away for a moment there ...

How much damage would it need to be a Cat S?

A hell of a lot of I’d think

S would seem to mean Insurance deemed it less economical to repair than pay for brand new.

It’s not been taxed since September when current keeper acquired it.

M2 asking prices haven't changed much over the past 3 months. But obviously transaction prices may be lower... if there are any transactions. I probably bought mine a little early but then again I probably wouldn't be allowed to take delivery of a car now, not that I have much use of it....

As you know category S is STRUCTURAL damage, leave it alone.

I didn’t know - seem to be a few more categories added than I realised.
