    VX220 Turbo in at VPSC

    Went down to VPSC in Walton earlier today and there was a Cat D VX220 write off in there

    Still pretty much complete wheels/brakes/engine etc

    Had full Bilstein suspension on it as well.. is this normal?

    Just in case anyone is wanting some bits

    CAT D shouldn't be too hard to get back on the road.

    He'll make some dollar out of that, that's for sure. I might take the day off work Monday to see how many 17 year old retards with sheddy Astras and novas try and scrounge bits.

    Are the wheels 5-stud?

    It will be in this case because the panels cannot be brought yet!

    That's probably why it's a write off in the first place.
