read the advert on this, can't believe he thought he'd get insured

Mitsubishi : Lancer EVO VIII 8 MR FQ-400 Damaged Salvage..

 

He couldn't drive it on third party anyway It has to be insured seperately.

 

I'm no body specialist but from a couple of the photos there appears to be some major damage, I wouldn't be surprised if that was a write off??

 

agreed with last comment .... only 3k to fix sounds like a bargain ....

 

Was being driven uninsured, and is located in Bradford

Six Out Of Ten Drivers Not Insured (from Bradford Telegraph and Argus)

 

That advert made me laugh.

G

 

Hah the frontend is twisted to ****, the rear quarter is really bad to, the kid is dreaming if he thinks its worth that!

 

Scary as hell that such a wreck can be put back on the road & not even appear on a HPI check

TX.

 

To my untrained eye it really does not look that bad. The impact could not have have been that heavy. The door have no buckling, windscreen intact etc.

Not worth what he is asking of course

 

Shall I.....shall I......OK then....a bit of T-Cut and it'll be sorted!

What kind of plank would drive a 40k Evo uninsured???? Something smells fishy. At least it's got ahalf a tank of juice in it.

 

Probably cos he took daddys keys when he was on holiday!!

 

its fooked big time and would cost a fair bit to fix id emagine . hes a dreamer . id hate to be the person who owns this in the future. its scrap and only good for parts really.

 

One carefull owner

 

yup,proper fooked, to be honest, if he can afford a £20k salavage car he could afford the £6k to insure it, you can get insurance on ANYTHING, its wether you want to pay the ££££

a 17 yr old could insure a bugatti veryon if they wanted, yes it would cost £100k to insure, but like i said,if u got the £££

cars a walkers

 

Obviously it didn't handle as well as he thought it did

 

you must be crazy all it needs is a cross member a new bonnet and bumper and lights and mb few other minor things i would say total 4k they wont write of a 40k motor for 4k there is next to nothing wrong with it

 

^^^ this isnt your mate by any chance??

looks an expensive fix to me

and if the bonnet has been pushed back like it has, there must have been a lot of force on it which means theres a good chance that the chassis and axle could be bent then you have a course the total respray taht it will require.

 

bonnet fold pretty easy doesnt take that much force to bend them

 

Must be a 20yr old with some money to be able to get that repaired....

 

Yeah, its not that bad... I've seen bonnets that have been folded in half and there hasn't been any major structural damage to the car - the fact that the airbags didn't deploy says a lot; that was probably only a 10-15mph glancing shunt. Thats very likely repairable and there wouldn't be anything wrong with it once it was done - you wouldn't even be able to tell; its not a wreck by any means. The only thing that raises my concerns are the comments about the boot floor, but you really need to be able to get around and under it to see what effect (if any) that has had on the rest of the chassis - its not a certain show stopper.

That said; I still wouldn't want to pay £20k for it!
