i dont think the turbo will be ok, from the look of the block the turbo has probably been crushed. but the brakes would be good, and id presume the seats also as there is only really light side damage. the wheels would be ok, may have to get them re rubbered, proably a fair few plastic panels from inside. would be good. rear seats, rear wing, rear boot would all be ok.

Turbo is on the back of the motor Blake so chances are it's fine.

The VRX, more than likely a recovered stolen car. Possible 'dodgy' job as insurance company would have offered replacement car, stolen car appears on stolen or RWO register. Car winds up at an auction house for someone to pick up.

Evo, I wouldnt touch the brakes on that, especially the front.. Who knows what sort of damage the wheels could be hiding. The steering wheel, bitch of a thing to remove. Rear bar, Evo rear bars are slightly wider than the other Lancers rear bar.

Strange all them bottles. And all Vitamin water... Self absorbed wanker you find at a gym??

it wont be ok if the block has been pushed against the firewall and crushed it is what i was referring to, but it may not have, that's what i meant.

I reckon this would fetch around 25-30 grand... the Evo that is. ANd if a panel beater gets it, they'll probably end up putting it back on the roads. Not a good thing for the unsuspecting owner who buys it.

I doubt that it would go that high... the front end is where all the expense is. wouldn't pay more than 10k and you'd have to be a salesman to get that back through the salvage.

that's a hella lotta work to put back on the road. unless he sourced a full front cut from somewhere, it's not likely that thing will see the road again.

it may not look like much, but the way that the crumple zones on the lancer means that most of the damage gets pushed under where those photos don't make it clear.

It says in the listing structural damage... This won't see the road again. And if it did, nobody with a brain would drive it. Even repaired, a heavily damaged car is never the same to drive.

Adrian, it's listed as a repairable write off :) So it could have a chance of seeing the road again.

Nobody in their right mind would bother putting this back on the road is the point I was trying to make.. Way too much damage to repair it
