Only on a cat C , cat D's don't show anything to warn you on a v5 document.

Looks nice m8, Ive just got a m8 one the same colour the other week but he needs a new rear axle (looking for one if anyones got one) due to a badly curbed wheel. He's started to browse on here but hasnt got his cash out and joined yet. ;)

Its had a new front bumper at some point as well, no black stickers on either side of the bumper inserts. Only know because mine was the same. Still a nice car and im sure you'll love it :)

.

Yeah, the wheel is bent but after putting the spare on its clear the passenger side wheel is still not straight in the wheelarch. Should i be able to remove the original brake disk and re-use it on a new hub? It will probably be my mechanic m8 who will be changing it, though he doesnt know...

Is it hard to do on a 96 1.8 clio valver? Just bidded and won one for a m8 today seems in really good nick apart from the passenger rear wheel being badly kerbed (been replaced with spare) and the wheel tilted slightly to the left. Im hoping it just will need the hub replacing but if it...

Id be wary of auctions and i go to them all the time. Went to one in bawtry yesterday and was looking at a golf gti for a m8 who i was with. As we were looking around i spotted an old car i used to have around a year and a half ago, a p reg bmw m3 evo saloon - i bought it smashed up in need...

I wouldnt have thought it can be worth more than £150 - 175 ish depending if its recorded or not or has tax and test left. Plenty of similar cars like that as salvage auctions go for the same amount. Does help you to know the cars owner as you will know whats been done to it mechanically in...

Ok , cheers merk i'll see whats its like tommorow then.

I would've used something like parkers but for such an old car that only people like ourselves would buy its hard to judge what its really worth.

Sorry if im hijacking the thread but i may be getting a ph1 172 from a m8 in a part ex he doesnt want tommorow (Depending on what its like). Its Silver and X reg done around 84 thousand and ive been told its hpi clear and in pretty good condition throughout. He's not sure if it has any history...

Have you done a hpi check on your car since its been recovered? One of the cheap £3ish ones via text should show up if its been stolen recovered the same as a more expensive hpi type check. Ive been through the same process recently with a car ive had. I bought it from an auction as Cat...

Right ive read through this again now, if you want this removing off the hpi try this asap. Get in contact with you local poilce force's stolen car department. Then make them aware the car is no longer stolen (yes i know the police found it but they are slow in updating information between...

Your insurance company is winding you up m8, no way will your clio be "recorded" stolen recovered on the hpi if they are going ahead with repairs of any kind. The only thing it could go on (apart from being unrecorded) is cat X (yes it does exist as well) which is usually stolen/recovered...
