Dont know to be exact, waiting on an email back to find out if its been declared or not. Doesnt sound worth repairing if it is though. Could still make a profit on splitting though. | |

it will show up on a HPI check if it is declared and if its a cat c then you have to get it put through a check that will cost you, bit of a test really like an mot but worse! | |

if its not delared then buy it but if it is then i wouldnt bother as it will cause u so much hassle, and why does it need jiging, any pics of inside the boot? | |

so for 400 quid, you get 2 engines, an interior, brakes, suspension, 8 wheels, an aftermarket exhaust worth what? 200 quid? and you're not sure? :lol: | |

depending on the price you buy it for then it may be worth it but unless u have the kit yourself or are going to keep the car then genrally its not worth it on car that are worth bellow £20k! | |

Well the idea is to make a profit on selling it on, either that or break it for parts. | |

Is it really worth it for the sake of a little hatchback probably worth £200? | |

Im considering investing in a damaged old rallye. Its taken a rear shunt and apparently will need to be jigged. The boot floor could possibly be crumpled although I am unsure. Just wondering what the general cost of jig work would be and what work and costs would be involved in repairing the damaged shell? |
