Anyone know the car? Decent spec.

Looks a not bad buy if you can pop the dents on the roof out without too much hassle.

That Gordini went for 8k iirc.

 

[Gally]

He was looking at that aswell. Not sure it was worth the money. Big thanks to Josh at Cliospares for the help with parts prices et al. Nice chap.

Hopefully get the chance to use them.

Odd that the front 2 airbags deployed but the seats dont appear to have fired despide the side impact?

For £6k it seems a good buy, FF 200 with cup pack.

 

[Scrooge]

Bargain. sorted for 2k?

 

[Gally]

Turns out it's recorded cat C.

No idea what other damage it has but I have no idea how you can get 13k+ repair costs from that.

Strange one. Very strange.

 

[Scrooge]

Someone was given a backhander to give that a Cat C.

 

[Adam.]

Probs an assesor hatin'.

BTW its missing its rear view mirror autolight wiper thingwiii.

 

[Gally]

Must be backhanders because cat C is repair costs 100%+ of the retail value of the car.

Adam some were non sensor but they are only £15 to replace which is very good anyway.

 

[Scrooge]

I just sold a cat C Fiesta black 51 plate. Damage was headlight and wing, that is all, some dogy assesors out there.

Car has been on ebay for ages. Must be worst than it seems or it would have been sold weeks ago

defo been on its roof, sold on bluecyle, possible eng smash

 

[lemonnobby]

engine wont start if the air bag have gone off

 

[Gally]

engine wont start if the air bag have gone off

Wrong.

 

[lemonnobby]

you sure

some times they do sometimes they dont, but it they dont, its most likely ecu has blown as when bags blow it sends a error into main ecu to cut off all fuel etc..., frm my own experience its a bas&ard to sort as has to go on a main dealer clip machine, snapon or bosch wont do it, cost £500 last time as they replaced ecu, its one of the main reason's that car hasn't sold since its been on the mkt and theyve knocked almost 2k off the original askin price, desirable salvage like that always sells in a few weeks especially off ebay

u could get around it buyin a ecu/ lockset but the chances of a breaker havin one which was running is very remote these day. So its replace all seat belts & airbag set easily 500 quid, lockset £250 or ecu reset if ur lucky <1hr labour but 90% of the time its ecu replacement, so £1k just to get the car running b4 even thinkin of repairs LOL

The guy selling its a nice chap.
