Greg modifies it.

Beat me to it

[Leroy Peterson]

I thought all insurance claims where they pay out rather than fix the car were automatically a stat write off?

it would then be sent to Auction. Some one bought and trying to flip to make some profit.

either that or the VIN plate been FKed with?

Makes sense.

Possibly stolen straight from dealership then later recovered. Have heard a few stories of those with the VF GTS

[UNR33L]

maybe at my factory? or even my place.

why not at RE customs instead brah ?

excessive water damage has the meaning given in clause 15;

"statutory write-off" means a vehicle that is a statutory write-off within the meaning of clause 4.

2 Application of Technical Guide

(1) A person who, in accordance with this Schedule, is assessing whether an area of a vehicle has been fractured, cut, cracked or buckled or is folded over onto itself must make that assessment based on the relevant diagrams contained in the Technical Guide.

(2) In this clause, "Technical Guide" means the "Damage Assessment Criteria for the Classification of Statutory Write-Offs" approved by Austroads Ltd ABN 16 245 787 323 from time to time.

3 Prescribed structural areas

s. 28

For the purposes of this Schedule, the structural areas of a vehicle are—

(a) the roof;

(b) each of the pillars;

© the floor pan;

(d) the firewall;

(e) as applicable—

(i) each of the the longitudinal structural rails; or

(ii) the chassis;

(f) the vehicle suspension;

(g) mechanical components;

(h) the supplementary restraint systems.

4 Statutory write-off

A light motor vehicle is a statutory write-off if it is written off and has been assessed, in accordance with this Schedule, as having—

(a) excessive structural damage; or

(b) excessive fire damage; or

© excessive water damage; or

(d) excessive stripping damage.

5 Excessive structural damage

(1) A vehicle has excessive structural damage if three indicators are found in the vehicle.

(2) In this Schedule, "indicator "means—

(a) excessive damage in a structural area, determined in accordance with this Schedule;

(b) deployment or activation of a supplementary restraint, determined in accordance with clause 13.

(3) For the purpose of calculating the number of structural areas which have been damaged—

(a) excessive damage to separate pillars or to separate longitudinal structural rail or chassis is to be counted as a separate indicator;

(b) each different and separate area of excessive damage to the floor pan or firewall is to be counted as a separate indicator;

© each incidence of excessive damage to a suspension station is to be counted as a separate indicator if clause 11(2)(a) applies;

(d) excessive damage to any part of the roof is to be counted as a single indicator;

love it when my gtr misfires badly at low rpm's then stalls in the middle of the road. luckily after 5 mins i could get it started and limp it home. the spark plugs are so black that they are black (can't think of anything funny) time to see what caused them to foul so quickly.
