late model one as well. soneone was being a goose by the look of it.

funny how many of these I'm seeing pop up at the local salvage auctions. kids seem to get them and think they can drive flat out and sideways - not so.

It says "Vehicle has been REPORTED". rolleyes.gif

reported over here usually means it's Stolen hence the referance. For a car like that to be abandoned after a crash it can be one of only two things, stolen and abandoned or the owner was over the limit and has done a runner.

LOL I didn't mean it in the literal sense. But yes as Mark said, reported out here usually implies a stolen or abandoned car (highly doubt a car like that would be abandoned...)

from what I know the REPORTED sticker is placed on cars that have been (REPORTED) i.e. a crash and left at the scene, stolen and dumped and someone called the cops. The cops come see it take notes and maybe pictures and will place a Reported sticker on so that they don’t get 200 calls from random residents that just spotted it hours later wasting time on the emergency lines that can be used for real emergencies

it can be from either a crash and dash, not insured or cannot afford to have it towed and leaves it parked there, multiple reasons, as for the P plater comment that they can’t drive, if you look at the death rate in NSW at leased from negligent driving or speed caused accidents the majority is caused or involves 30- 49 year old males

it seems more and more predominant that men in the mid life crisis kill themselves. and NO I’m not on my P's if your thinking that. just don’t like P plate bashing.

Hi Alex, sorry if my post looks like talking down on P-platers.

I only meant some (Really really bad ones) that drive well above speed limit with loud music on, overtaking everyone they can overtake, etc. Maybe they are in a hurry for something, I don't know. I might also add I encountered more girls than guys too.

Anyhow, I got nothing against P-platers (So far as no one has caused me any problems...yet). :)

Pretty sure it's Write off alright. The rear Chassis is bent, probably broken rear axle too. new wheels, New Rear Fender, new rear bumper, Back window, Taillights, boot. Been there done that on the Track with similar damage with tyre wall but not as bad as this one.

      Dose's Sometimes DIY and Pay Someone Home & Boat Improvement Thread

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
