Just noticed another eBay auction for James' old 100HP.
This time BG56ZWJ appears to have been fully restored

BEFORE: Click here to view the scrap auction

Must say looks like they've done a fantastic repair from the photos.

Cheeky Gits not mentioning it was a cat D repair

who is going to contact them and **** them off lol

by the sounds of it it wasnt declared an insurance write off, so his not lying, he hasnt said 'its not been crashed' just said its not been written off.

The problem is what you can't see in the photo James described the damage which sounded very severe.

What a cheeky git eh?

JON

could always ask the question "was the structural damage to the a-pillar and bulkhead area caused by the arrival of a peugeot at speed fully and properly repaired back to OEM spec?"

wonder if he'd answer and make it public?

Can this not be reported to eBay?

Some poor bistod will buy that not realising.

was wrote off

car was written off, whoever buys that is in for a treat, I still have the spare key should the new owner join the forum....and the handbook lol, **** wheels though

For a private seller to lie about that would be shameful, but for a trader.....!!!!!

I wonder how many other cons he's pulled. The guy wants reporting!

Who feels an "Imran" style pwnage session brewing?

reported to ebay, and also asked this question...

"Do you know much about the car's history and when it was written off?" pmsl

PMSL! yeh, it will deffo be Rofl-worthy when he finds out your the original owner... you should lead him on a bit - the guys a con-man, deserves it. Plus, it'll be funny as hell for the rest of us

I'd feel so sorry for the un-suspecting future owner, although at least they'd have an extra key lol, I did fancy leading him on, but thought the question hit the spot quite well lol

i think you are all being a bit harsh here. none of you have viewed the car since it has been repaired, so who are any of you to call him a conman etc

yes it may have been written off, but remember when insurance companies write off a car they do it considering how long it would take to repair if they are shelling out for storage and a hire car etc.

from what i can see in the advert, he hasn't said it has been written off - but he hasn't said it hasn't either. he isn't lying, he's just bought a car, repaired it and is now selling it.

in the past i've bought puntos with blown head gaskets, repaired them and then sold them - making many times what i've spent on the car. i never told the owners that the head gasket had been blown in the past because it has been fixed.
