The state of those front lights look like perhaps the water was deeper than they are letting on.

I thought flood damaged cars had to be crushed and were not to be used again??

Nah Joshy Dee's the man to ask but he was selling a flood damaged ph1 not so long ago, obviously its catergorised, they are failing to mention whether its a C or D in this case. I guess if the flooding was bad enough to make it a Cat A or B then it wouldn't be allowed back on the road.

It seems like it needs a UCH looks like its been in to water up to the front lights. but tailed off as its only the bottom of the front seats that are wet.

only if its foul water or salt water, otherwise usually cat C depending on the level. If its above the seats its generally C. Looks to me like it will probs need a UCH etc etc thats why he isn't finishing it. $$$$$$$$$

Could be a number of things and he's either lieing or doesn't know the cost of a uch with the questions on the bottom of the page too. Could be a number of things if its had a good deal of water in it and the battery has been connected.

Also the clutch pedal is on the floor by the looks of it?
