Don't forget there will be approx £100 Copart fee's on top of the end price. I use Copart quite a bit infact my 2.2 DTi estate was bought from Copart in Wiltshire and driven home ::)

Not to my knowledge at the moment :-\...the cars on it's third engine(don't ask,it's a long story and it'll send you to sleep) but it's been an expensive exercise and if it was'nt for Daz saving the day by finding a good 3.0 ltr and doing a thorough refurb on it including 3.2 manifolds etc and using only VX parts then she would have been parted out a long time ago.If I had known about Daz prior to me taking the car on then I would'nt be smarting so much,but learn a lesson and learn it once. :y
