quote from pistion heads site

"Cat C cars can have been absolutely slaughtered, believe me/ I would not buy anything that was classified as more than a Cat D and even then I'd want to pay peanuts for it..

As to value - take 30% off the value of an equivalent non-registered car and that'll be what you should be paying. ...and be prepared to keep the car forever as you'll have trouble selling it on in the future - in 3 years' time, the equivalent non-registered car will be chea enough to render yours scrap.

10-15 years ago, the relatively high price of new cars kept the price of used cars high enough to make write-offs worthwhile considering, but not any more."
