The shortest lived life of any Polo

[William_Foster]

6km's on the clock, and already at a salvage auction; it might be good for parts depending on the cost.

WTF? It never even made it to PDI.

Why would the insurance company write off a brand new car with a ding in the door and the roof? Odd.

[The_Hawk]

they must think the re-sale value is worth more than getting it fixed will cost... but yeah, seems a little odd.

30,000km already... perhaps a test mule or press car, hardest 30,000kms possible. Probably a good way to finish an abused life if for press use, lol.

That GTI would almost be worth buying if it goes under $10,000 and repairing it, it's deemed a repairable write off, better than a 2 year wait maybe...

That's a disgrace to see that poor GTI like that...however sent an email off for the boot lid, pedals and steering wheel...however i may back out of the steering wheel since it has been deployed :/

[gavs]

You will have to get a new airbag and clear any codes out of the memory of the wheel because of being deployed....

[Hail22]

Yeah i found a wheel for RHD vehicles in the UK, put an order through i prefer a more meatier grip on the steering wheel

The list price of the repair parts on the quote exceeded 11k, no labor or paint, so that would be a GTI that cost you ~ 33k & forever have a marked VIN number.
