Shocked to see it back on the road after someone drove into it whilst parked... !



Noticed the spoiler is also missing now. Believe the owner was on here?

Description says previous cat D, at least cat B surely?

 

[car.crash]

Cat b is parts only and not to be put back on the road.

 

[K4M_clio]

Yes I know and I'm no expert but that surely shouldn't be put back on the road the crash panel is destroyed

 

[Chris_Beer]

Seen worse go back on the road, things can pretty much always be fixed one way or another, but I would hate a fellow enthusiast to buy it not knowing the whack it's had.

Of course it says Cat D in the advert, but sometimes this could be due to stolen keys, keyed paintwork, stolen parts etc

Saw that on eBay, looks ok in the pics.

It got smashed into the back of the Range Rover behind it also.. so unsure what the back was like but the front looks a right mess... !

The unmatched fog lamps, oddly placed R.S. badge and what looks like bodyshop repair mess in the engine bay / under bonnet with exposed fusebox should be enough to put any people off from here I would of thought. God knows what behind the bumper looks like lol...

 

[imprezaworks]

Yeah, hopefully.

It’s not white so I dismissed it instantly lol

 

[Chris_Beer]

New car ?! :frowning:

Get a boosted one PLEASE

 

[imprezaworks]

Looking out for a white/red 200 with recaros.

No boost here lol

 

[Chris_Beer]

Driven one?

Personally couldn't get on with the wife's 197 when we had it, compared to a 1*2 anyway. Handled great, more refined and nice wide stance, just the engine felt like something is missing, hasn't got that urgent feel like I get with the Cup? And MPG was just odd... !

Not yet but hoping too in the next week or so.
