I'm sure I've seen that one for sale ages ago so it's been hanging around a while...

Just depends on whether your willing to throw 11K at a cat D car I know if repaired correctly bargains are to be had but it's always a knock on effect when you come to sell on or if you have an insurance claim. I know at one time you could get a car on the Hpi register engineer inspected buy one of their approved centres and if passed you would get a certificate to prove it had been inspected and repaired correctly. I did this once when a unscrupulous dealer sold me a car which was on the register without telling me, went through the inspection process and the engineer who inspected it said he wouldn't even take it for a test drive it was so bad! Cut and shut two bloody cars welded together! Suppose I did buy one get one free though :lol: paid the dealer a visit and came away with my money plus cash for my pix which he had paid over the odds for! :thumbup:

That is true. It shouldn't always be something to put you off, but you should feel confident in what you are buying.
My 4 series is a Cat D repaired :eusa-shhh: I bought it for about 7k less than if it wasn't a Cat D. (It was given Cat D due to litigation issues which meant that the total cost would have been uneconomical. It was only a wing and bumper that needed replacing.)

With the 4 series, we are planning on having it for a long time, so resale doesnt bother me, and most likely we would trade it in anyway when we change.

For a car like the R, I would steer clear if you want to keep it as a collectors item or future classic. But if you want a cheap exclusive car to rag around then it shouldnt be a problem. :thumbup:

It is striking how cheap the R got in UK over the time.
Here in ze Germany almost all of R's on the market are at about 25-30k euros

I guess its a lot rarer over there than here. Luckily I got mine for what I consider to be cheap for what it is, but, now I have one, I'm happy for it to go up in value :lol:

I’d go for the 13th one on the list for €30k, white, with incredibly sticky tyres. :eusa-whistle:
