Very interested but like my PM.. I'd like some other bits. Can you post a pic of the dash?

Thats totally repairable IMO.

Providing that you could find the parts required

I have had 2 cars repaired over the years and they were both much worse than that and both drove as they were new!

Anyone got a front end lying around?

It's already a registered write off as of 1130 today

78sti · Post by **78sti** » Wed Nov 17, 2010 4:56 pm

That does not matter as long as it is registered as a repairable write off and not a statutory Write off.

I bought my outbcak as a repairable write off and fixed it and put it back on the road. It had much more damage than your car. A Statutory write off requires major damage to 3 places refer below.

A motor vehicle (other than a motor bike) that is damaged according to at least three of the following impact damage indicators:
- damage to an area of the roof equal to or exceeding 300 x 300mm
- damage to an area of the cabin floor pan equal to or exceeding 300 x 300mm
- damage to an area of the firewall equal to or exceeding 300 x 300mm
- damage to the suspension.
- cracked or broken major mechanical components such as the engine block and
- transmission casings.

Once it is repaired it will require a inspection to be reregistered and it will have a perminant recored on revs that it has been written off and re registered.

dont let it go. thats an easy fix. all you need is a bonnet, rad support, bumper and maybe a guard and some other misc parts.

I agree with everyone , that is easy to repair. the drivers frame looks square and the left one is only a little wacked. the headlights look fine
I have a radiator support panel thats only a little bent, i will happly send you. just pay the postage and anything else that i can to put you tarmac ready.
Have a think about whats broken and then ask around to see who and what can be done.
Cheers Pete

I wouldn't give up on this subi just yet. You may be over it at the moment but in a year or two you'll be kicking yourself for letting it go so easily.
