I have bought a car from there recently, they don't treat the cars to well in the yard the mondeo I bought got thrown about after the auction had ended denting the front wings and rendering it scrap only ( I was breaking it anyway) I complained and they give me the car for 50quid!!!

it's just of the a1 near a housing estate and next to a brick works.
that cossie it way overpriced already!

Theres often more to these damaged/salvage cars than you first think. Always bits missing and stolen etc etc. Often only minor things i know, but it makes you think what else they've swapped/nicked.

And what actually is that bit of wood doing?? Is it wedged in from the accident or actually wedging something in place!!

I think these type of cars are often only worth buying by someone with bodyshop facilities as they might be able to do that for a grand all in, if not less??
