nooooo not another l/y in teesside , do a hpi check on the car, best way to find out history

[Hutch]

Saw 098 for sale in the auto-trader. Good to see her rebuilt as the last time I saw it, it was on its roof...

[Richiemouse]

Depending on what caused her to be written off not necessarily a bad buy, look at TT's rebuilt LY24

[rich_r]

not sure someone has posted it, but this is number 98

Doesn't say anything about being repaired. Has anybody contacted them about it?

[leebo]

yeah, i went to look at it last friday, it had 9400 miles on the clock, it was in absolute mint condition, not a mark on it, but there was a noise coming from the disks at low speeds, don't know if thats a problem, it may have been stood for a while, it has had 3 previous owners aswell.

[Hutch]

I was the third owner and was involved in the accident that wrote it off. The pictures are posted on here. I will search for them. It should be in mint condition, they would have had to replace every panel.

[Hutch]

Not to sure how to paste a link but some pictures of 098.

Not sure how I managed to miss this thread...but I've been the proud owner of LY # 35 since new. Might have to sell it soon though as I won't be able to drive for a while :-( Got about 35k on the clock and I use it all year round come rain shine or snow as it's been my only car for the past two years. Ash in sunny Manchester.
