(This happens a lot with exotic cars) <BR/><BR/>So in this case Cat D (light damage) could realistically be anywhere up to £20 - £30K of damage. However, in many cases may still be described as light damage if the chssis & sub-frames are still intact.Elliot Antrobus-Holderhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09181912383937512320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2214044357803402192.post-48848879595465012742008-10-11T19:42:00.000+01:002008-10-11T19:42:00.000+01:00I know this car and it's prior owner.
