Incorrect Write off Category?

[skodayouth]

I was looking at damaged/salvaged cars on ebay, not in the market but just like to see what happens to these cars and the sort of money they go for

I have an understanding of write off categories (Like the ones here: http://www.insurancewriteoff.co.uk/), and CAT D is usually a cosmetically damaged/stolen recovered vehicle thats beyond economical repair or the insurer cant be bothered to pay for a courtesy car, I have seen CAT D applied to more expensive vehicles that also have more significant damage (Radiator, Suspension, Wheels, E.T.C) which is understandable

Then I saw this : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-116I-SE-2008-SALVAGE-DAMAGED-REPAIRABLE_W0QQitemZ230437896679QQihZ013QQcategoryZ9837QQcmdZViewItem

Looking at that split in the frame does anyone else think that this should have been CAT B so that It could never return to the road and potentially be harmful if it is involved in an accident again, I dont know if anyone would ever be able to get it into a fit state anyway, unless they do a severe bodge

I would say Cat B personally too.

I don't like that "split" shot from underneath looking up at the door handle either! With the red wire tacked up.
