It's not too hard to fix and to be honest and it look like a near minter!... Insurance paid out 5k for it so it must have been a good.  However, not sure on value now though as that mileage if correct is phenomenal and sadly it's a CAT C now.

I would say it's not worth much more than it's current bid if that.

That mileage is probably wrong, a freind of mine had a mk1 ,his girlfriend now has it and the mileage on that now reads over 500000,somehow the clocks went a bit mad and and started clocking something like a 1000 every mile  :shocked: then stopped working
