quit Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 As you regulars might noticed not been much progress on my wagon thread lately not bored just looking at options Love it but it's a 3rd car and mrs don't use her car so might sell both get a hawkeye spec c or sti But !! I will get bored Found coming for sale a cat c car I can buy very very cheap ! I need to build a garage or at least a car port but if all goes ok could have the car in my possession in about 5 months Is cat c that bad ??
Ash007ks Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 my skyline is a cat c, make sure its Vic tested or you will end up having to pay £40 to get vosa to check the vin plates before they will release the v5
Gambit Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 No I've also looked at a few Cat C's in the aim of buying one to do up bit like yourself. I'm not 100% clued up on the means of getting it back on the road other than the Mot and tax and the Vic check
quit Posted April 12, 2014 Author Posted April 12, 2014 It's still with the insurance company so will have to get it tested myself
Ash007ks Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 in that case you will have to do what i did with the skyline as the previous owner chose to not do it. type vic test into google and fill out the form and then pay the required monies, they give you a date and time and then head down with the car, i believe the car will then have to be retested.
Gambit Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Yeah once the repairs have been done that they wrote it off for you can drive it to the MOT station have it tested once its been tested and fine you then apply for the Vic check with VOSA is my understanding of it. I've only been looking briefly into it myself seen a few nice write offs :)
quit Posted April 12, 2014 Author Posted April 12, 2014 Yeah my mate is a mot tester but think it's going to take me 18 months to get right Needs paint and a engine and a interior
Gambit Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Bonus handy when you know the MOT tester :) 18 months be nice project thread if nothing else :D
quit Posted April 12, 2014 Author Posted April 12, 2014 I said 8 months to do my house I'm now into year 3 and not finished so time keeping isn't great with me
Gambit Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Haha my missus was just looking over my shoulder and said you sound just like me :D Mind you I have to now as it's being valued after easter :(
quit Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 Had a call from insurance guy and looks like it's a go-er :-) 1
