Why spend $50K on a car if you can get one for half price or less and fix it up legally.
If you dont have the knowledge and skills buy new and pay full price.
The current balance in Qld is pretty good I think. You must document repairs and prove where parts come from etc. Inspectors have always been fair to me, I guess that proves the thing was repaired properly.

I wouldnt try what was in the video but we are a throw away society these days, writing off a car for a shopping centre bingle or some hail damage is stupid as well.
Only reason to buy written off car is price. Repaired car might be ok but it will never be as good as the clean one . For something like a taxi i would understand as it is just a tool .
