Cat C Car
Comments

Get some insurance quotes before you go any further. Cat D and C cars typically cost more in insure, and the difference for a new driver might be immense.My daughter is learning to drive, and has seen a little car that she would like to purchase to private practice in and after passing keep for a year or more time she is confident to trade in and move upwards.
However its a Cat C car, which means repair costs where more than the car's value, right?
I have contacted seller and waiting for them to get back to me. If we were to go and see it, what things should I be concerned about? Should I steer her well clear? Would a previous collision compromise the safety of the car? Would anyone buy a Cat C car????
The car she is looking at is a Peugeot 206.
Thanks very much for any advice, always gratefully received0
