A £50k car can be smashed to f**k but still be a CAT D. [/quote] It is to do with damage . It's also nothing to do with stolen recovered it's purely due to the extent of damage . Stolen recovered with minimal damage has it's own category ( X ) I have had loads of cat d's and C's . Would never buy one that I hadn't repaired myself though . Too many fuckers cutting corners . Saw a belter other week with a mazda 3 with no drivers airbag just a plastic cover where the airbag should be . Far too many folk cutting corners with salvage these days [/quote] You are SO wrong... A £500 quid car can be CAT C recorded for a scuff in the bumper... A brand new £50k BMW could have every panel damaged and still be a CAT D.. And I bet substantial amounts of money I've seen, owned and repaired more recorded cars than you have :thumbs: Yes damage does play a part but only when were talking about cars that are Burned out, totally destroyed, the chassis is ripped in half or the emergency services have cut the thing to bits.. The we're talking CAT B/A. Oh and some times if there have been fatalities the car will automatically be recorded CAT A.. [Edited on 27-01-2015 by DaveyLC] [/quote] O..K then mate , doesn't damage determine the value of repair ? It's not the other way around is it ? Seeing as you have two motor dealers in your family and you are betting substantial amounts of money I won't bother arguing with you. [/quote] Again nope.. A bumper for a Ferrari F430 is worth a hell of a lot more than a bumper for a 10 year old focus, I'd imagine more than the entire car :D [/quote]
