Searching around all the different salvage websites and came upon this the other day, which this afternoon i ended up winning for the grand ol sum of 90 quid. Which after charges will end up being something like 140, but in my eyes and what i want it for is cheap!!!!

hmm, have you looked around it? The boot floor is probably nicely creased.

I was going say it looked a right bargain till i saw the rear end pic.
Not sure if its the cam angle, but the rear panel looks well pushed in, you can see the ground through the gap between the panel and the replaced rear bumper....?

yeah £90 plus the fee's will be about £50-60 with the loading fees etc they have added lately.

Then you got your VIC which is £36 and the MOT etc.

Probably owe you £3-400 by the time you have repaired it and MOT'd it.

Was gonna say looks like the bumper carrier to me tbh, a good old whack with the biggest sledge and a few blocks of wood should sort that out lol

I know that car! use to park outside my work. Also it must of once been one of the fleet cars at my work looking at the 'V' (vincents) sticker in the rear window.

If you wanted to sell it on again, I maybe interested ;)

why you interested? i'll do a straight swap for your's yeah?

at end of day if boot floor is creased i can scrap the thing, but i cant imagine it to be that bad, ive seen far worse cars on the roads!
