Guest GETTAJETTA Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Seen a few Supra's that only have panel damage (cat d's) for under 2k - are replacement panels (wings/quarter panels) expensive or is it best steering clear of write off's??

JustGav Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I would steer clear if i was you mate! Why? Some of the CatD's can be a right bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordy07 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 When i was looking for a supra i went too see a CatD and most of you said to stay well clear too,although i really liked the car i left it! I am not saying you personally told me gav but lots of others did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying you personally told me gav but lots of others did. Like anything in life, there are CatD's and then there are CatD's. I've seen a CatD which was nothing more than a new bonnet and some lights. All depends where the damage is really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordy07 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Fair enough but the one i was looking at had already been fixed and i wasnt too sure of the extent of the damage before it was fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I've seen CatD supra's with no damage! As Gav says, you might find a bargain, but like any car they vary a huge amount whether it'd make a good buy or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miko_supra Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 How can you get a catD with no damage? I saw a nice clean Cat D TT for £3k last year. 6spd and low miles. It just needed a respray as most of the panels had been keyed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GETTAJETTA Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Can anyone recommend a salvage yard which specialises in Jap cars - Ideally I'd be after a cat D aero top - cheers - Shayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
