Credit Crunch must be hitting hard.

id never pay £5k for a Cat damaged car, even if its a trophy. Not that cheap imo

Why not?

You can get CATD cars that have just had a smashed headlight/put through windows or something.

As long as you know whats happened and how its been fixed i would have one!

Bargain depending on what its a cat d for, but to be fair, isnt that like £2k cheaper than the cheapest trophy?

 

[robson11]

thats a bargain, cat D isnt that bad any way and it looks like its been repaired to a good standard aswell

 

[Beef-Mc]

Can't see any obvious problems with it being repaired as CAT D, would need to see photo's of the damage though.

 

[172Ben]

Should be recordered and mentioned on the HPI check i imagine?

 

[J0sh]

Part of me says buy it, but the other part just tells me it'd be a dog and id never sell it on.

 

[BREMBO]

If I was to buy it, have the engine and seats then sell the rest of it

 

[Mark One]

thats a rip IMO

 

[matttr6]

I would say thats about right. Straight Trophys are going for £6.5k now. It'll always have that cat D hanging over it when you sell/ trade in. Not worth the hassle IMO.

 

[GinandGasoline]

my old one... still doing the rounds trying to sell it.

And it's Cat C by the way....

You can buy a straight one for 6.5k now.

seems ok, and the previous damage doesn't look to be too bad really, as said though for the bit extra a straight one seems tempting really just for ease of resale if nothing else.

[Timmay]

Yeh like mine which was up for sale for £7,200 and i got it for £6,425 5 weeks ago!! only 33k on clock. BARGAIN

 

[The_Pirate]

Its not that its Catogorey registered that puts me off but more of the trying to sell it on. I doubt id even buy it for £3,500

Looks like a good example in the pictures. The only problem with CAT D is selling them on.

Personally, if a car is cheap enough cat d or not i'd have it.

 

[maz172cup]

i year down the line - that wud be the price value of a normal hpi clear trophy

thought i recognised the plate (i know you had a private reg on it, but it has as you say done the rounds for a while!! and has been flagged up on here a good few times)

 

[BRUN]

over priced IMO by £1k

it was mint, til it went through a fence and was repaired on the cheap with 2nd hand parts...

only fair that people see the extent of the 'light' damage

 

[R20 CWH]

aye totally. I bet the 'repaired' pics will probably be a wee craked headlight or some shite like that. Anything to fleece people.

they part repaired it and in the original advert where they tried passing it off as lightly damaged they left the damaged bumper and bonnet but had replaced the rest of the damage.... then told me that the car had hit a traffic bollard which caused the damage
