Sad to see but gets us parts... Like my handbrake lever today from Germany

Heartbreaking but good to see the care they are taking...almost reverent.

Come on .... The car doesn't look that damaged.
Looks to me it needs a bumper, grill, hood, fenders, airbag and possibly some inner bits, assuming the chassis is not bent.

Its crazy that a good looking car and seemingly in good condition has to be written off.
Parts are so inflated that they make tearing them apart for spares so appealing
It just hurts me to see this ...

Was thinking it could have been repaired looking at the side damage......and what a lovely spec car ... rare rear seat entertainment package to.....Such a shame...

It may be twisted underneath , you don't know. Nice to see them taking care removing parts.

How rare is that rear entertainment package ?

Seen it on a few QP's over here but as a 5k option it was not a popular one.

Sad but impressive.

Just tragic to see, looks like it only had a 'love tap' on the corner!

 

[Contigo]

Made me cry!

 

[drewf]

Me too. How heavy must those front seats be? Everything else is moved by one chap - both of them carry the seats...
Must be all the heating, cooling, massaging kit, eh Andy?

I think it was more than a kiss; watch again and look at the rear wheel when they take it off, it looks like a 50p

It will have been. If it was purely cosmetic, I can't imagine they would part it out; it simply wouldn't make sense.

Only ever seen it on 2004 cars ie the first ones. Made me think the initial demonstrators had it fitted to show all the bells and whistles.

 

[Andyk]

It was still an option to the end as it lists it in my 2006 brochure...Seen them is 2005 and 2006 cars......IT may have been in a few more if it was say a 2k option and not a 5k one....Seems a lot for what it is but would love to have one with it in....

Vid is from Klassen Ltd., they are near to my hometown in Meschede, Germany. They are specialised in stripping and/or selling damaged exotics / sports cars in whole or parts. Always worth having a look when in need of parts for the beloved ones. On ebay http://stores.ebay.de/klassenkfzdemontage?_trksid=p2047675.l2563

If you have trouble with the language just ask me, I will gladly provide some help.

Best, Mac
