Many Category D vehicles have been stolen and then recovered after the insurance company have already paid out for the loss.
RobJP and RT are perfectly correct. A private seller is under no obligation to tell you a car they are selling is Category D. Different matter if it's a trade seller and also a different matter if you ask a direct question and they tell you a lie or deliberately mislead you.
It just goes to shows you should carry out an HPI (or similar) check on any car you are intending to purchase before the sale goes ahead.
It may-well be a good car but it will always be a Category D. This will reflect in the cars value, both now and in the future.
