what you think bit rough round edges lad says he works in police impound and has all documentation

etc for it apart from logbook he says has all the stolen papers etc  so is it all above board you think  i can have it for 400 but i think its a bit steep

also had the bike running ... so it was a none runner but later says its a fast bike

(Got documents for the buyer to send for log book.. ) so he has not got the logbook ?

Not without the logbook.

Also that's clearly stolen. Or was stolen, so why was it in the impound and not returned to the owner / insurance, as I'm sure they will of paid out.

It looks like a shed... I've had poo's prettier than that!

A lot of £ will have to be sunk into it for it to be decent.

Don't forget, I'd take anything the seller says with a very light pinch of salt. They're telling you what you want to hear so you buy it. Or just any b*llocks they can think of when you turn up.

nice bike this and the sellers well trust worthy even takes a pic with the bike in question but conveniently is looking down the side with his arm in the way of his face also he states its his 1989 dt well with out a log book o proof off ownership you will find its still belongs to the compound.


hpi check is a must as said the insurance would have paid out.

If the insurance have paid out, it's the insurances bike. So therefore the plod should have returned it to the insurance company. The only time the police won't do this is when the serials have been ground off, as there's absolutely no way of proving the engine & frame belong to the person that had their DT stolen a few days prior. :(

Lol at MDK comment, We can see this well healed DT owner has been really busy working on his project. Ragging it around feilds and the streets don't count as a project lol.

Some of these adverts are so funny. There is a not bad one near me for £250 no frame numbers but plenty spares thrown in to. I should really buy it but I can't be assed dealing with scrotes, it always ends up a waste of time.

If it's written off it cannot go back on the road.

Does it say what category. Cat D\C means it can go back on the road but otherwise it's only good for spares.

Thing is you just come off a DT and they're written off by insurances purposes.

I wouldn't chance it personally. A cat C/D right off always kills the price of any vehicle. No matter how well restored :(

 Ban IP address? What on earth is that going to do? 

 

I don't know many people with static IP addresses. unless you pay extra you're stuck with Dynamic IP addressing that you'll receive during ARP.

Cat D and C it can but Cat A/B it cannot.

Cat D can go straight back on the road

And I believe Cat C needs an inspection before it can go back on the road.
