Car there, got a big dent in the back as you can clearly see on the photos, i was wondering if it would be worth it to get the car and then just fix the dent?

the boot floor will be creased, meaning the damage is structural. i could give you 100 reasons why not to buy that car, but just take this advice; stay well clear.

Stay well clear. The repairs will most likely be worth more than the car because chances are, it'll have chassis damage.

a lot of money probably, the driver's seat is on the wrong side :/

rear quarter damage is most always a write off except for high value cars, it'll be a right pain and hassle to fix, it'll be quite expensive and probably never be perfect, boot floor will be quite rippled and as it's a Cat C you won't get the money back and it'll have to pass a VIC test before being road legal.

wont be worth it. will need vic test as said, approved garage to do the work etc and re-mot'd. bumper will probably never fit right, chassis could be bent which means danger. dont bother mate not at that price, i'd pay tops £100 for parts off it and scrap rest

don't buy it - more hassle that it's worth to fix
