Not anyone on here I presume?
I don't quite understand the whole cat B thing, always thought it had to be crushed.
Surely can't be that light of damage if it is cat b.
All i want is those brakes!!

Agreed, somethings not quite right?

Category A: scrap only. For cars so badly damaged they should be crushed and never re-appear on the road. Even salvageable parts must be destroyed.

Category B: body shell should be crushed. Signifies extensive damage, although some parts are salvageable. Should never re-appear on road, although reclaimed parts can be used in other road-going vehicles.

Category C: the vehicle is repairable but the costs exceed the vehicle’s value. Can re-appear on road.

Category D: the vehicle is repairable but repair costs are significant compared to the vehicle value – including time delays to source parts. Can re-appear on road.

That's some heavy brake dust on the front wheels.

The whole back end looks out of shape. Look at the boot lid top left. NSRQ out too.

Yeah. They look remarkably like 8 pots painted grey to me (I could be wrong though as I am only viewing on my phone lol)

Been on ebay via the computer and had a good close look at the brakes. I have to agree with RichieRS, they are the regular 8pots painted silver. No way are they the ceramic brake setup.

Lol v good spot Richie! Never thought anyone would ever try that move and get away with it!!
It must have the ceramic sticker therefore they are ceramics.

I was looking at the general shape and the way that the central 2 pots where either side of the sticker, whereas the ceramics have a pot dead centre to the caliper!!!

No link? I gotta go search on ebay to see it?

Looks like they have put a new wheel on at the point of impact. The other 3 wheels are painted a darker colour.

This is my old car. If you remember i refurbished the brakes in the same grey as ceramics.

Such a shame and hurts seeing such a good example in that condition.

Really? Other than the crash damage it looks to be in pretty good condition with plenty of history.
