quite bad, my 106 was catd, which is 60-100% of market value to fix, i personally wouldnt want a catc as catb the next one up is needs to be scrapped, so catc will be pretty close to not being allowed back on the road

also anything thats been written off dont pay full price, dont accept that its been repaired to perfect standard because any bad history will mean its value is less as potential buyers will be put off

bent chassis would have been a cat b for sure rarely fix them now tbh, imo i would find out facts about the car could be bad or nothing really
