Tempting

You would need to be very brave and probably have no scruples. I took a 7 series in part exchange that had also suffered in a similar way. We got it to start then traded it out. I heard on the grapevine that as time went on the car became a nightmare of faults ,rust and continued electrical faults and failures.

Which is why insurance companies instantly write them off

it will probably go for 70-80k thats an expensive punt

That's been around awhile
Risky punt especially if the engine is hydro locked

Buy it and part it out.

The additional info made interesting reading.

"CAR BRAND NEW, APPROX 6 WEEKS OLD PRIOR TO INCIDENT DAMAGE CAUSED DRIVING THROUGH LARGE PUDDLE"

Must have been one hell of a "puddle" to write it off !

there was a "rumour" last year that a couple of works drivers did this to a couple of new ones I wonder if this is one of them?

I'm guessing they'd be "former" works drivers now.
