Thread: Flod damaged cars?

They are usually put up for tender aren't they?

So someone buys it for F all, fixes it up a bit, and flogs it off to an unsuspecting buyer...

not entirely correct

yes they are sold but they are deregistered to get back on the road they have to go thru a stringent expensive certification process after which it is noted on the vehicles papers that it was water damaged and deregistered.

if this doesnt happen then some dodgy backhander has been done , and none of the insurers allow that to happen anymore

the vehicles that will slip thru the cracks are the uninsured ones that get a quick waterblast by the current owner which there is no control of and its buyer beware
