My old C43 on ebay

[timk]

Just spotted my old car on the 'bay. Often wondered what came of it after it was written off and it seems it's only done 2.5k miles in the past 2 years. Last time I saw it, it looked like this..

And it's now a CAT D btw...

The seller makes no mention of the fact that it's a damaged/repaired written off car which is a bit naughty IMO.

He says that there's a rattle from the NSF though...

Yes - 'ARB rattle'. Maybe it's not been bolted back together very well... 'Buzz from ABS' sounds strange too.... And it must have changed hands a few times as it says 8 previous owners.

Worth a punt at the starting price I guess.

Dear docrov,

Hi there , No VIC markers recorded against it is there ?

Not a Cat D or anything ?

Shame, always liked your C43 tim was going to buy it from you at one point.

Police car hit me on the nearside and shunted me into the opposite carriageway. It was a police dog handler's car trying to do a very silly manoeuvre across the dual carriageway to turn himself around. He didn't look over his shoulder though...:fail

Send the seller a message informing him it's Cat D along with a link to this thread.

Can't do any more than that.
