    Write off pulling apart!

    Sadly some idiot drove into my poor lil Beat and made a good ding. The insurance company are making thier desicion this week as to if it is a write off. Considering they cant even get prices at this stage to make the desicion I'm tipping they will write off.

    Anyway to the point. If it is written off I will buy the car back and strip it and sell every last piece of it.

    So If anyone is interested in parts could you let me know so I can work out if there is enough interest in parts to make it worth my while buying it back.

    The damage is too the rear right back panel (no good anymore) and that wheel. The suspention is bent also, from what isaw before it was towed away. Therefore all other parts will be for sale. (original interior) (1week old cloth roof in perfect nick also)

    Hopefully there is enough interest and I can put out a list when I know what s going on.

    Any feed back would be great.

    Hello there!

    The roof wouldn't be a problem to send, it's quite light. It's black sunfast cloth with tan backing on the inside (makes it lighter) Only 1 week old and it hasn't even rained on it yet!!! As I said I am still waiting for the insurance company to make a final desicion. As soon as i know i'll let you know.


    I do have the original cassett stereo. It all works perfect, just with one wonky button, but that still works. As i said I can let you know asap!!

    Ta!

    Sorry to hear about this - I hope they fix it for you, but if not: I'd be interested in the passenger side door trim, the (if original) gear knob and the ashtray. Possibly more.

    The passanger side wind mirror is already on hold, but you are more than welcome to the drivers side.

    It's a RED Beat if that helps anyone!

    B-pay would be fine!

    The insurance company are so bloody slow, I am hoping in the next few days to have an answer then!!!
