    Default #031 Accident damaged for sale at Coparts, Bristol.

    Damaged, "Repairable structural", it says. Big fat question mark on that, I would suggest!

    Blimey that has taken a bit of a shunt.. with the angle of the crash bar, engine and popped window etc, I would suspect there is also a fair bit of hidden damage.

    I am not sure that is coming back to life.

    Nice big bump under the rear seat squab ?? Rear wheel positions suspect etc. Breaker only, surely? Current "bid" at £425.

    Hopefully the driver was not hurt.

    At this price it is probably worth buying just for the spares. I suspect it might go up from this.

    With that heavy a frontal impact it has probably hit the engine but hopefully not damaged it.

    Yes I noticed. I was tempted while it was under £1000 but I am finding it difficult to justify now.

    Hopefully who ever buys will part it out so we can all benefit.

    Wow, that is more than I thought it would go for. I wonder what the new owner plans to do with it?
