I wonder what happened. I first thought simple spin but the roll bar is at funny angle. Well strange.
Looks like an easy rebuild project for someone. Watch the price tho', if a dodgy set of bodywork went for £560, this could double in price yet.

I'm not so sure it's an easy project.
If you have a look at the front pictures, the steering rack looks like it has been displaced, front left lower wishbone looks bent and I think the chassis is some what bent at the front.
The de-dion is bent as well (look at the rear left wheel)
Oh, just noticed, it's an old car (1989)

i'd be surprised if its rolled, the caterham roll bars are normally that angle and the windscreen isn't damaged at all....

suspect the chassis is badgered tho but Arch (who make the chassis for caterham) will do a new one for you. Engine must be worth a bit.

In that case its had a most interesting smash up! The rear wheel really is at an odd angle (unless it slid into a kerb or something...

Seems like a lot of money for a 16 year old car that is bent.

But it's not going for 3000 cos it's got a reserve on it. God knows what they will want for it at the end.

The running gear's not 16 years old though.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
