    That's easily fixable. If it's someone else's fault, get the insurance write off money, get it back, and fix if you actually like the car.

    Unfort, it was my gf's fault.... it ended up been hit twice because the first impact swung the car round facing traffic, and then the second car skidded in to her head on. Colin is fineeto

    The passenger door had to be kicked at full force to open it

    It'd just had about £300 spent on it too, few weekd ago a new timing chain and water pump, then found out the head gasket had gone. Typical

    Looks like an easy fix to me too. Especially in 20r as colour matching used panels will be piss easy

    Only a bit of basic spanner knowledge required though? its not as bad as it looks.

    Even the windscreen is intact.

    Twinport sxi. Ive told her to snap there hand off. I have no doubt if the chaisis isnt damaged i could fix it all up, but she doesnt want me to.
    I think it would cost a lot to fix IMO, and with an offer of 2200 who's going to faff about

    Looks like front panel , cross member and the chassis legs probably totally bent .

    What is she going for next ?

    Was the weather a reason ? Well at least they offered a fair amount

    Not a easy fix at all imo, the passenger side inner wing/chassis leg is clearly ****ed? Not just a case of bolting new bits on as stated above lol

    True i dont think itd be too easy either, even if it was, there are a LOT of parts there what would need replacing, daft things like the wiring loom is all ****ed to the headligts etc as well.....

    @daddy cav, Got no idea yet mate, prob be going car shopping over the weekend..... Yeah, dont think the wet/icy conditions helped when everyone attemtped to slam on. And aha, really cant complain with that price to be fair.
