hi guys
just in-case anyone of you see this car up for sale in the salvage auctions, i though it best to warn you to avoid it, it might look an easy cheap repair but its not, the car is the one my wife crashed, and although it look ok the chassis is bent!

i was torn between a Mito and the C3, although the build quality on the mito is Much Much better than the C3, it also had blue&me, satnav and imo a much more comfortable drive, the C3 is slightly larger and "easier" to drive plus cheaper lol.
also had a massive plus of i managed to knock 2 grand off the asking price with a full tank of fuel and 14months tax!

Michael she was hurt but is recovering :)

shes doing better :) im knackered looking after the kids and her but hayho,

they offered us tbh **** the first time around Sub 2 grand! for a low mileage 56 (07) Mobus, it wasnt enough so after arguing my point we have had the revised offer of just under 3.5grand,
still quite low imo but its better, so i accepted. Just glad i managed to knock the so much off the C3 lol, ill give my wife the new car over the weekend.
