I wouldn't touch either - both have been insurance write off's at some point.

I remember the one with the M3 bumper for sale around 6 months ago.

The first one is Shane's it is also for sale on www.m3cutters.co.uk (http://www.m3cutters.co.uk)

Both adverts state CATD and CATC so have clearly had an accident or Stolen/Recovered.

[shimmy]

as above, both are Cat C or D so need to be checked over professionally if that is your budget limit otherwise all CSLs currently on the market are £22k plus

A cheaky offer on the clocked one might be a better deal if you can trace the history prior to Ze Fatherland visit:thumbs:

Re: first ad, I can only assume it was involved in a front end accident & had to replace front bumper, but saw the cost of a new one and fitted a regular M3 Bumper?

And why is this on the piss? All a bit :whistle: :smt017

Answer: because it's had a BIG frontal ;) and been fixed poorly on a Fiesta budget :hahaha:
I wonder how wave the chassis legs are ???
It's also missing some air ducts and other under-bonnet bits & pieces :whistle:

That's some strategic photography of the CAT C car as not to quite get a full frontal of the horrible standard M3 front bumper! Not trying to hide it MUCH are they! :banghead: :whistle:

You also have to ask who the fook did the repair!? If it had gone through a recommended/approved repairer of an insurance company then the vehicle should have been properly assessed and even the minor parts paid for and the car put back like for like!

Its a CATC so wouldn't have been insurer repaired, it would have been sold on. Bought by someone looking to make a quick buck hence repairing it (economically)

Oh sorry my apologies, I got mixed up with one being Cat C and one being Cat D! :banghead: :hahaha:

Yep i agree with Rob & Shimmy, why bother!
It's worth spending the time & money to find/buy a well kept/serviced car!
