It says he's not gone through the insurance.

I wonder what on earth he crashed into that allowed him to not go through the insurance on something of that scale. A wild deer?

The driver has stuffed it, not the other way around.

the impact doesn't look like the front of another car to me.

Worth buying as a donor for a kit car maybe but still a little pricey for that tbh.

Indeed, a lampost makes a smaller V not a large impact point like that, looks like hes hit a drystone wall sideways to me, perhaps on the corner point of the wall.

That would also explain why the rear wheel is snapped off - sliding sideways at speed, hits the kerb (snaps the rear wheel), then hits the wall.

Whatever happened though, the driver was bloody lucky to be alive.

Coming to think about it, the only thing I would buy that for is engine parts... That is it, but would never pay over 800 for that!

Get yourself a very large barge pole.

I wouldn't touch that car for £34 let alone £3400.

Anything can be repaired given enough time and money, but that would require far too much of both to make it remotely viable.

Dr Who · 29 Oct 2009 at 10:02

Needs a complete new shell, 2 doors, sundry suspension components, wheel+tyre, god knows how many other parts.

Stay well clear at that money

What a waste of a lovely car.

m4cc45 · 29 Oct 2009 at 11:04

Interestingly the radio has been ripped out as well which makes you think anything of value has already gone. I wouldn't even pay 3.4p for that.

Its an Evo Buddy

New shells are not that much tbh, as long as so much of the original car was used it can also go on its original number plate too. Would be an interesting project
