That is a good mileage for an hdi & check the sphers out !! i would be tempted on the car if it was closer

Parts only though, the front will be miles out of square, and he the main loom runs right where it's been bashed and will be mullered - if the mileage is genuine, then the engine ought to be good for a few pennies. Mind you 14k in 12 years, it may be well gummed up....!

Pah Richard beat me.... but basically, yes the important MAIN loom runs behind that wing.. Looks like its completely missing.. Then theres the washer bottle, and the Radiator bottom hose that runs to the back of the block. The Wing structure...

Looks better then it really will be. With that side of the wiring loom destroyed the car will never run again. It carries the ECU to Key transponder info as well as everything else to the central computer behind the dash.

As for the engine at 14k. Gummed up? No, NOT on a DERV, they dont gumm up like petrol engines with mayo.. No matter how short trips are.. So that 14k engine will be a gold mine!

Most defeantly a parts car.....

Not sure about the 1500 quid asking price in that state. 1500 if it was tidy prehaps...

£1500 is pre accident value i believe

THIS ONE looks a better prospect, despite the age and miles.. lot less to do. probably still runs. And will cost NO WHERE near the 1150 in parts to fix! Ive two whole cars to dismantle!!

Much better bet...

i would be very surprised if the strut mounting turret was still were its meant to be, and there will probably be suspension damage as well,

How much ???? way to much.

It's an auction starting at £0 with no bids so far, the £1500 is the estimated, and rather inflated, pre-accident value.

It would be great as a source of low mileage spares, interior parts in particular. The Alcantara driver's seat might even have some life left in it, though it's unlikely.

Copart is the company that sold my old girl after the accident and I think it went for £150
