Is it just me, or does it look like the wheel just fell off on that?
If so, it surely wouldnt take that much to fix?

I'd say it probably looks better on photos than what's really underneath...

Apart from the wheel it would surely need a rear axle, diff, prop shaft maybe, suspension and some straightening in order to be able to fit any of the parts...

very loose interpretation of "STILL RUNS"! Like the chase scene in A View to a Kill?

Wing has taken damage as well.

Not sure how they know it drives if it only has 1 wheel on the drive axle.

If it was only the wheel wouldn't they have put on the spare even just to move it around?

It looks like some of the suspension/transmission is missing, the secondary damage could make that a scrapper imo.

The chassis has twisted on the rear.

It was my mates car. The rear o/s suspension, hub, brake caliper, disc, trailing arm was ripped out. It does run and it would drive if there was suspension and a hub on the offside rear. The chassis is the difficult bit, as its twisted into the floorpan under the back seats, if you look closely you will see the o/s door over laps the rear arch !

It would need to go on a jig first then the suspension putting back.

To costly for the price hes asking as the car is only worth 4500 tops when fixed since its been damaged. Getting hold of the bits if you dont have contacts would be quite difficult too.

My Mg6 has less damage than that and i know which one id rather fix and sell.
