Well done Steve :thumbs: you've saved me the hassle of picture whoring :hahaha:

Im working up to being a PDF whore, but at 19.5k I can't find any small enough :thumbs:

Picture looks like it has the plastic piece missing from the front panel too.

I would stay clear.

I tink thats because its non AC, but I might be wrong, should it be there regardless?

That's the same CAT C CSL that's been on "For Sale" now for almost two years :banghead: It's the one that use to have the regular M3 front bumper. Looks like they've replaced it now but there are lots of little bits & bobs still missing under the bonnet and who knows how poorly it's been repaired . Also Cat C (being worst then Cat D) suggests this CSL has sustained substantial damage (bent/cracked chassis I'm guessing + £3K worth of NEW CSL bumper) to be categorised as such. The Insurance Pay Out is based on the percentage of the value of the car at the time of the accident and I think if repairs breach 50% or 60% of the value of the car it gets Recorded. Since clean, low mileage (sub 20K miles) CSLs are still fetching £30K + today, that one was probably £40K+ few years ago when it was 11K miles at the time of the accident, making a guestimate repair bill in the region of £20 K :119:
BTW, I wouldn't trust that pre repair picture either as it doesn't really demonstrate the seriousness of the damage. I'm guessing both chassis legs were pushed across to the near side.
Let him brake it for £20 K as that's his thing and hopes, by self admission.
