So, my 850 got rear ended about month ago and the insurance company paid me out for it. The car is now up for auction at Pickles if anyone is interested. I'd buy it myself but my wife has said a definite "NO" as she believes me and 850s are jinxed. Hopefully someone here will pick it and get some use out of it.
Damage that I am aware of:
Tailgate - badly dented and would not open. Didn't try and force it as it went to insurance for appraisal.
Rear bumper - will need replacing.
Tow hitch - well, the picture speaks for itself.
Exhaust - possible knocked loose as there was a rattling while driving home after accident.
Rear right hand door - fussy about closing. loose catch I think.
Passenger door - wouldn't open from inside vehicle.
Also the upper windscreen moulding needs.
Front seats need replacing/reupholstering.

The ECU apparently has a BSR tune, I never opened it to confirm though.
(All mods have less than 10k kms on them)
Recently been at GLT to have cam sensor replaced which fixed my rough idle/running issues. Air con was nice and cold the last time I drove it.
If anyone here does buy it, I have the dickie seats for it and the owners manual, just let me know and you can have them.
I also have an ARD "tuned" ECU and a Vast tuned ECU with COP conversion for sale if anyone is interested.
