Ohh the penny drops 
"Koocha" real name "Gartrac"
The same user on here that tried to flog me a moonstone blue 3 door rep earlier this week that had supposedly been re-shelled into a Motorsport shell which had a 3 door factory sunroof and a hand punched chasis number
The words "Sour" and "grapes" spring to mind

If this had been a frontal damaged car i wouldn't have touched it!
The only damage was to the bumper and a slight kink in the quarter!
Drives better than any cossie i have ever driven and believe me that is a lot

Some peeps would not touch a hpi recorded car,don't know why if its cheap enough.
my first cossie was a q-plated one,was dirt cheap too,and it was a 92 model.
Some rs's have had been damaged anyway,just not recored.
So you don't really know what has been done to it.
Nice car Spadge anyway.

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
Just sold my saff rolling shell and that has just shown up on hpi as scrapped as I told the DVLA it was off the road and they got the wrong end the stick and recorded it as scrapped 
Still a trader is buying it so he knows the score and therefore any derogatory comments I may have made in the past concerning traders HAVE been shall we say ''reconsidered''

FAO the people worried about write offs etc........
2 cases for you.....
1.
I drive down the road in my 3dr crash into a lamp post, repair it outta my own pocket..... no record of accident....
2.
I drive down the road in my 3dr crash into a lamp post, claim off my insurance and they write it off as a Cat C or D, someone buys it at a salvage auction, repairs it and sells it as a damage repaired vehicle.....
How many people are driving cars in case 1 and how many driving cars in case 2???? same car 2 different endings
When I buy a car I buy it on looks, condition, spec and how it drivs etc........ a fully stamped service book means fook all without a full set of receipts to back it up.
Anyway........ car looks sweet Spadge and I hope we see it at Ace Cafe monday night...

Looks nice mate
Still cant believe you sold the black one, it will look odd now when me you and Ant are blasting up and down the motorway, as we had one of each colour!
See you tommorow
PS... Your engine hoist is working hard this weekend, its holding the front of the car up about 5 foot off the ground!

Steve - I couldn't agree more mate
At least with this car i can clearly see what was damaged from the pics i have of it before it was repaired! When an insurance company accesor would have looked at it he has to estimate the cost to put it back to perfect using new parts etc...Can anyone tell mehow much a new rear quarter is for a 3 door Or if they are even available!! I have personaly had 3 cars written off as cat D's with very little damage but which would have been very easy and cheap to repair but to an insurance company it is a different matter!
Thrush - I have forgiven you
I have owned personaly 7 3 doors and quite a few saffs
Dunc - Yes mate loads of goodies to be added in the next few days/weeks
Bill - Cheers mate - Please hold off with the new sig until i get some proper pics! Unless you can change the black car in my old sig to white as it will look identical appart from the colour
Ian - If you break it you own it lol
I did think about the fact that i was breaking up the Northants set of 3 lol but you know me and my liking for white 3 doors
