I like that co part website, some very cheap cars to be had. Is cat C worse than cat D?

Salvage cars are more hassle than bikes, VIC checks and such. Do proper research.


I'm more amazed that with a very very strong chance of a f***ed frame, probably needing a new cylinder head, that that is a cat D!!!

Original Metzler MEZ4 tyres.

The D220s were generally considered an improvement :)

Recon the frame will be fine after that. The forks ain't made to stand up to much so would have caved before transfering much energy into the frame.

Maybe the superior curvy has a chance, I've seen a pointy with far lesser fork damage with the frame cross brace snapped and micro cracking of the welds aroudn the headstock.
