the cat d repair was done on the passenger side doors where it had a kink right in the middle of the pillar section, both dorrs needed to be replaced with the sideskirt. according the the current owner.

any info would be much much appreciated

thanks

Don't be depressed about a Cat D car going cheap - IMHO I wouldn't touch one with a barge pole, there's enough to worry about with a straight RS4.

Back to the original question and I seem to recall this car being for sale around a year ago or so - same images for definite.
Maybe ask MRC?

saw pictures of this car for sale on Pistonheads last year, probably about 9 months ago, in its damaged state. ALmost went to look at it but it had sold before I had the chance.

Damage was indeed on the pass side and was hit on the sill, B pillar and both doors, not sure about the roof. Didn't look too heavily damaged and probably not a hugely expensive repair. I'd get an inspection though...

Are you sure it was this one as the pics I saw showed no damage - in fact they were these pics.
Are you sure you didn't see this one which was registered L33 NBL?

The one I saw had black wheels, and was with a salvage dealer in the West Midlands, pretty sure the same one as the OP has asked about. Also had an MTM remap. Damage was similar to the above pic however

My mistake, I actually saw in in March 09 at 84k for £14k (the filename I saved the pic under reminds me of this).
