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...

Insurance wouldnt pay out anything for your car (apart from if its been damaged in the process of being stolen) unless its been recovered around a month or so after the date of theft. Even if you get a insurance claim on a stolen car it doesnt always mean it shows up on a hpi check. Ive...

LOL! If anyone had mentioned buying a car from eddie wright id have steered them well clear.

It has rear quarter damage (pretty light really) and would need a vic test (£36). The car starts and runs ok though and like ive said before it probably is too good to break. It could be a headache removing all the required bits so ive said i can still sell it complete. Tbh you can break these...

As title http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330226036146&ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:GB:1123 Can still sell complete if wanted. 07921573607 Rob.

Got mine around 1pm yesterday and played it till 3.30am! Done the class c and b races but found the online races annoying because of all the other tossers ruining it by bumping into each other. I havnt seen a option to tune cars yet and you cant play you m8's online yet either - i doubt you...

Idiots! That front bumper was ok on wed morning as i looked round it myself.

I watched some of the auction but not all of it , last time i looked the v6 was at £2250 but not met its reserve. I looked at it today though before the auction started and it was indeed fooked! :( Tapias - The auction listing said it had no keys, did you give them to the insurance company...

I can see performance cars made before 2001 going up in price soon when everyone realises they wont have the tax increase - at least for now! And from now on i'll be doing 60/65 on the motorway in my van regardless of late/far away i am from my next delivery, ive got to make every drop of...

Most cars seem to suffer at the hands of copart tractor drivers. A couple of regulars have decided to stop going after bidding on what they saw (some even went to look at the car beforhand) winning and then turning up to collect and having holes in the side of a car from a forklift and whole...

Cat D and insurance paid out £16,750 Front bumper slight damage but apart from what you see thats it no airbags gone off etc. At the moment = £100! This will go up though.

http://images.copart.com/website/data/pix/20071113/15804087_2X.JPG?11:31:05 Im guessing VERY rare in this colour? Any guess's at price for a rear panel? Its a 2004 model btw. Probably cant afford it (especially after i show it to everyone on here!) but you never know.

I paid £2000 for my cat D cup then another grand on bits spraying and a cambelt + auxbelt and that was ages ago.

Mine cost the price of the cam locking tools (which i let my mechanic m8 keep afterwards) and the cambelt + aux belts kit. Cant remember off the top of my head but around £100 ish.

52 plate 172 cup with 39 thousand miles Cat d needing repair = £2000 + £1000 to repair and cambelt changed. Sold for £4000. Why pay more?

Good cars the e36's, ive had 2 evo saloons, 2 coupes (just got another one, a 328i coupe in calypso red) and a 325 tds touring. Are starting to look old now but a nice clean one still looks good. And those wheels one the one you looking at, if they are genuine are worth a lot. Even if you...
