That's a sad sight, it looks like it used to be a really good car.

Considering three out of four corners have been taken out, the asking price looks like cloud cuckoo land.

Before the accident that was a £30k car with that mileage. I’d budget £10k to fix that, minus the cat D effect on value its not worth really worth repairing unless you can do it yourself

Thanks for the info guys
I might go to view it to see the extent of the damage
I’d be repairing it myself as I have my own Bodyshop

That serious huh? I'd be cautious.

The problem with a car like that is both the scrap value and the repair cost are high, which only leaves a small window for economic repair.

It's not just the bodywork. There's a lot of complicated stuff in every nook and cranny in that front end, and that will be damaged as well.

The last RS6 C6 to sell on ebay went for £12k, and that was a runner in fair condition with an oil leak, so that was the book price for "Private - Poor".

A scrap car that appeared to have been rolled sold for £6k a few months ago, and that looked comparable with the car above that's being advertised for £11k.

Don't think it's worth it.

Car was repaired twice, Cat D back in 2011 and now Cat S.
2008 RS6 Avant (Monza Silver)
- Stage II MRC tune with gearbox (720PS/850Nm)
- MIJ Powerflow exhaust (non-res)
- H&R ARBs
