If it's a statutory write off it can't be registered again.

In that state maybe....the amount of "junk" that ends up in Tassie is unreal.

Was that a statutory write off or just not worth repair write off

[RanJ]

Yep possible to do but you wouldn't do it only if you intended to rebuild it.

$25k sounds like a lot if he is already getting an insurance payout.

If he was getting a payout the insurance co would take the Prado. Unless he purchased the wreck back off them which I believe is possible.

If it's had a real dunking then the ECM will probably need replacing. There may also be residual water throughout the various wiring looms, connectors, sensors, instruments, etc. A really patient man might get it all dry and running again at a modest cost. But the average guy will pull it apart and sell all the good bits, cutting his losses.
