Buy this car?? hmmm..... No offense bud, but I'd rather suck the snot out of a gorilla's nose until the back of his head caves in.

For me I'm going to quote myself and Frank355

My S2000 was in a very light accident and had the rear bumper and exhaust boxes replaced, as well as front bumper, bonnet and one headlight and one wing. No suspension or chassis damage and no jigging.
Now that doesn't add up. If the air bag lid has been replaced that is probably because it has deployed. In which case it was a not light accident.

The Cat D question is a difficult one. Though i like simple.

Risk vs Saving

It's up to you

For me I'd only entertain a CAT D if I had a inspection report from before it was repaired, it was inspected afterwards, all reciepts were provided for the parts and labour in the repair, the repair was done by a recognised body shop and lastly I was not expecting to get much resale for it when I come ot part with it!

BTW Frank a first post like that is not going encourage some of the guys on here to leave you listing alone. Far from it, your more likely to encourage them. I also doubt ebay will have much sympathy for somone flaunting their multiple user account rules

Perhaps if it was in a dealer forecourt, but not privately.
Not to mention the fact that it's got the wrong bumpers on it and has clearly been pretty badly mangled in the past!
