Just browsing through the auction catalogues and came across a smashed Silver 03 Murci going to auction. Shame to see such a beautiful car damagd, but I guess someone will buy it and repair it.

What sort of $$$$$$s would something like this go for, or is that anyones guess?????

If it was written off, then the damage would have to be around the 70% to 75% of the Lambo's value. (???)

Would it be worth it?


Any better photos than the crap auction site photos.?

looks like such little damage, yet it's a write off. you'd think there must be more wrong than is obviously visible.

I love my car. Buy your own

Would be cheaper to buy one used. As it will cost a lot of $$$ to get the parts from lambo for repairs, excluding the labour cost.

Not to mention the long term affect of having the chance of the car having problems.

Buying one already used will save you head aces and time to drive the bull !  :cool:

Regards,

Dib

doubt there would be 2 around in the same colour with the same damage. the owner sued the insurance company and got the payout  :eek:

the crash happened last year, so it has sat around for a while. don't go looking for the tool kit, i knocked it off as my murcie never came with one  :p

Why does it surprise you he got insurance for it?? He may have been insured for the race in the first place, but then had the insurance void because, well because insurance companies do that :p

As for the tool kit, after all the money this car costs I would've thought you would've gone after Lamborghini to get a new one??

Damage doesn't seem to be that extensive. What kinda money would it take to repair this?? I remember my mate's dad taking his car to the repairer and seeing a rear-ended Bentley Continential GT and ask the repairer how much the Bentley would cost to repair to which he replied "$120,000" and it wasn't even a write off. That's near half the value isn't it?? Surely this Murcie wouldn't take half the value to fix it?? I could be wrong, I'm no expert after all.
