Looking at the date of the pics in the ad the sale was early this year. Wonder who paid all that money, even for a Sprint that seems rather a lot?

If anyone has a decent shell then that could be a very good buy now.

It's a Cat B write off, so you'd not get the ID with it; parts only. Also, with that amount of movement the axle, prop and gearbox would need very close scrutiny to see if they absorbed any of the impact force.

I hope the owner had an agreed value!!
