My old A2

Not open for further replies.
Had confirmation from HPI yesterday that the car was a category D write off and will now be added to their register - possibly too late though for the person who's now purchased it.

Don't drink drive! Not only is it socially unaceptable, it also harms A2's.
Was a Merlot Red 1.4SE petrol originally.
Now an Ebony Black 1.4SE petrol with Red Leather, CC, Symphony + all the previous options we had.
 
They are going to be gutted when they come to sell and then suddenly find their car is a Cat D write off. If the DVLA were so inclined they should contact the new owners so at least they can return the car to the garage for a refund.

2004 1.4 TDi (90) SE, Cobalt Blue, Climate control, Cruise control, DIS, Sport seats, Winter pack, Symphony II.
 
Surely by law, the garage are obligated to tell them about this now that they know the truth?

What is a cat D write off?

NEVER attempt a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
A2 1.4 SE TDI replaced with A3 2.0TDI DSG, the transmission of the future - today.
 
If the car was cat C, it would have had to have undergone a VIC (vehicle inspection check) and this would be noted on the log book as a write off repair. Cat D's don't need this.
I'll leave it a couple of weeks so the new owner logs the car with the DVLA, then I'll get in contact with the DVLA & try and talk to the new owner.

Hi Rob,
I take it that there is no news with regards to the old A2.
Still hate the thought of a new owner being completely oblivious to it's previous history.
 
No news yet.
I'll try and see if I can squeeze some info from people regarding wether it was actually sold or just move to another dealers due to the heat it was getting.
