Not sure on the 50mpg claim for the 120, unless of course those 12,000 miles have all been done at 20mph!!

The first looks a good buy. The second guy needs some good luck.

I will be selling my yellow mk2 in the next week or two. Asking price will be around £1050

Not a cat c or d but does need paint work.

That the first one is cat C for so little damage is crazy, that should be a cat D all day long.

The second one stands no chance, rubbish write up, with 2 poor pics.

headlight, front bumper, spat & painting will surely be more than 300quid, not to mention log book and vic and a car that's always on the register?

also loks like bonnet and wing damaged.

Mk2's are starting at a grand these days, as above, I would buy a straight one.

Just for interest sake I priced up the parts to fix the Black one using new parts which is how the insurance would price it, Front bumper £304.75, Headlight £279.97, l/h spat £109.62, a total of £894.34 in parts + labour and paint will launch it right into cat c territory.

So I retract my comment about it being a cat d:look:

He aint even gonna get onto the FIRST rung of the feedback ladder with an ad like that! ;)

Talking of easy fix mk2 Cat C's (which is what this thread was originally about), what do peeps think about this one?

I know it's a bit of a crazy old angle on that offside rear wheel, but if it was just a case of a suspension arm & links and wheel alignment, it could soon become a worthwhile proposition. Depending on the mileage. Opinions?

I was looking at the Black one, apart from the rear suspension damage, it's got dents all over it as well
