Re your question :
Vehicles that have to be dismantled.
* Cat A: Vehicle totally wrecked or burnt out.
* Cat B: Vehicle has heavy damage and to be broken only.
Vehicles that can be resold
* Cat C: Vehicles of this category are vehicles which the retail repair costs were over the cost of the pre accident value .They will need a VIC test carried out on them, this is done at the local DVLA testing station and would cost around @ �26.50
* Cat D: Vehicles of this category are vehicles which the retail repair costs were below the pre-accident value of the vehicle.
* Cat X: Vehicles of this categories have damage that has not been recorded, either a stolen recovered vehicle with minimal damage or a vehicle with minimal damage.
As with ALL purchases BUYER BEWARE,there are good repairs, and there are EXCELLANT repairs.

Cat D usually signifies minor/moderate damage, flooding or theft recovery and classed as an insurance write-off but can be put back on the road. Provided the car is mended professionally (make sure you check this out through affiliated repairer). Remember the car is only worth about half the registered price and when/if you sell it on, due to all the hype, private buyers would run a mile and traders will be reluctant to part-exchange!
