Can a Cat B insurance write off be registered?

This ebay link is for a Phaeton that has had water damage (repaired) to one of the ECU.

Would you really write off what was an 80k car ?

Fishy?

Emailed seller just to find out more info out of curiosity.

I agree, if you look at it it looks brand new, and certainly doesn't look like it's been submerged enough to reach the ecu, assuming it's an engine one he means.

*issed off chuffer breaking up his Lordships car while he's away on business:thumbup:

Cat A = destroy in the whole

Cat B = Take parts only the car must be destroyed and can't be re-registered

Cat C = Needs extra tests to be re-registered

Cat D = Cosmetic damage can be back on road

Cat F = Fire

THE AUCTION IS FOR THE WHEEL NUTS X5 AND NOT THE WHOLE VEHICLE

Any idea if the engine is still in it? Does it still start?

Let me know if the seller gets back to you and what he says - I will be very interested in the engine, Condition and Price Dependant.

Many thanks,
