TikTok user @cartradeuk1 bought a (Cat S) Nissan Juke for £4,950 and was able to repair the damaged door for £600.
A Cat S car is one that has sustained structural damage, but is deemed to be repairable.
In just five days, he managed to sell the car for a whopping £7,000.
However, he says that it wasn’t an easy job, but it was worth it.
The TikTok user @cartradeuk1 is a car expert, aiming to flip 1,000 cars to make some extra cash.
The video has had 53,900 views and 48 comments on TikTok.
But users think he paid too much money for the damaged car.
One said: “You paid too much for that car.”
Another said: “Out of every car, you decided to save the ugliest one??”
He replied: “Hahahahaha, every car deserves a chance.”
A third pointed out: “Never been worth £7000 on a Cat S even in the current climate.”
