You will have no problem insuring it. I have personally insured myself with no headache in the world. The advice that you are being told by the worry warts is hearsay.

Take it to a quality panel beater for an honest assessment. I would try somewhere like mr gloss?

Or it could have been submerged. Like flooded. They will write off a car that has. And I personally would not buy one. Nothing is for nothing. Bris will have a big auction soon with all the cars that got flooded. A whole lotta nightmares there with people thinking they got a bargin. Only to have something that will never work well again.

Hi Guy's I have just sold mine vy supercharged commodore, looking for a typhoon or fg xr6 turbo.

I have been offered a fg xr6 turbo which was a repairable write off now fully repaired registered for a cheap price the car has only 16,000 on clock, brembo brakes and 2010 model , should I buy this car and if yes for how much. All view's are welcome . Thanks in advance

If its an FG XRt and it's got Factory Brembos on it, then it is most likly a cop car anyway.

I believe when it goes over the pits to be re-registered the repair list is checked off against the car and all repairs are inspected before it is passed.

Depends so much on what was wrong with it.. a mate recently got a BA GT from the auctions (10g), repairable write off, but it has no damage that we can find?? Only a few small things that you can expect for a 140,000km car, I think it was a finance repo but im not sure why it was written off.

I'd buy a flood car cheap cheap.

Would be a good project too strip one down and clean it up

even if a written off car has been repaired correctly when it comes to the time you want to sell it people who do the check will see that the car was or has been a write off good luck explaining that one makes it very hard to get rid of...
