Depends on whether any chassis damage at the rear, but that could be a cheap car for someone. Problem is, why has it not been repaired? Will insurance companies pay out in full on a car less than 1 year old that is damaged, so that the owner can walk away? Is it even from an insurance company? Lots of questions to be asked, but could be an amazing deal.

Believe it or not mate we have customers that simply refuse to drive a car that has been damaged so will simply take a cash offer from the insurers leaving them to dispose of the salvage yes

Some speculation on the AMOC thread but nothing conclusive. A phone call to Copart needed,,,go on Cockers, you know you want to. smile

A lot of insurance co say that if car is seriously damaged in first year then a replacement car will be given rather than it being repaired.

What about a mini group purchase and repair?

Could be an easy profit margin for those involved??

With that reg and mileage its from Stratstone Wilmslow and could have been there's. I wonder if they'd want to sell it if its had a knock, whether recorded or not.

If that's the case wouldn't it appear on Vcar as a CAT D?

Not nessasarily Mikey although the Stratstone story sounds far more plausible especially if the accident hit the papers.

Looking at the mileage again, its lower than the delivery mileage on the new Vanatage I picked up last month. If it was a customers car then they can't have been in it for more than 5 mins. Probably fell off the back of a lorry!

I don't have the funds me old china frown. I would have no issue at the right price, but sadly not the car I would purchase. Hopefully someone does this to a nice volcano red V12VS and sells it to me with that mileage for about £90K......... But now I am dreaming.
