Was going to say a very similar thing. Dont they write off integras if the recaros get stolen (simply due to there replacement cost)?

i wouldnt think so. the cost of replacement recaros is not even close to the replacement cost of an ITR.

I dont think so. Check this thread --> http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...ighlight=write

I think some insurance companies have been known to write off the cars before due to the cost and the amount of time required to actually get them.

Take my advice i was goin to buy a civic b4 this and it had the same thing repairable write off wen i chekd it on REVS
it turns out wen i took it to my panel beaters,ther was a $3000 hit Unrepaired just touchd up...upto u take it to ur panel beaters or else dnt go near it :P

its best to stay away from this car unless you can be bothered getting a full safety inspection done! might just be worth it...

insurance companies will try and rip you off, honestly. They will write anything off that they will have to go to more than minimal effort to fix. reffers to cousins paint job above. Just takes a bit of arguing.

Guy’s lots of cars get written of from just the cost of repairing cosmetic damage :rolleyes:

But why take the chance :p

Tho if its hell cheap and you can find out what type of damage it was, then maybe its worth it!!!!!!

I was gonna get the car for about 8500, it's a 98 gli with 100000. So i guess it's not that much cheaper.

I think that is sort of the point that I was trying to make but just didnt come across right ;) :).

"i wouldnt touch it wit a ten foot clown pole..."
i knw a guy who repaired a car that was a "repairable write off"... lookd good from outside but he told me the car was so crookd the front bumper didnt fit on it n panels were heaps hard to line up... that car wouldnt hold up very well in another accident

as for the insurance companies payin out integras for stolen recaros... ive heard that its with dc2r's n depends on insurance company. my mate had his car stolen recently n they stripped all the interior (prety much left bare metal inside) n paintd a smiley face on d bonnet of his dc5r and insurance company gave him a choice of wirte off or pay out...

Thats not to cheap for a GLI man

Look somewhere ells :thumbsup:

not worth it at all.. that price is crap anyway.,

safety first man. plus you dont know all the details no matter who looks at it wat you read etc... take evryone's advise and keep looking .. youll be ALOT happier in the long run, especially if the chassis has been knocked about etc,.

GL in the search. it will be worth it.
