It's been taken away for qoutation on repairs but I would guess it will be a write off due to age and damage.



Would it be worth buying back to sell on as spare or for engine exhange???

92k mileage FSH engine is mint and runs like a dream

Full leather interior infact the interior of the car is mint, it's like new inside.

Polished original alloys, the whole car is original apart from a full exhaust system.



Cheers for the help

that damage ain't too excessive mate if its as mint {or was as mint} as u say i reckon bonnet, radiator, bumper,lights and some new clips and some steady handling/bending of the outta shape bits you could be a diy body shop man. Buy it back but i don't think it'l be a R/O.

what did ya hit?

Just looked at pics, thats fooking minor mate, there is a williams bonnet on ebay, get that now, front bumper is slightly harder to find, can do without a grill for a few months

Hit a stationary merc at about 25 mph

They had stopped and I came round the corner on a foggy day (same day heathrow was closed) and bang, they had stopped and not put their brake lights on.

The interior is mint, I was suprised at how nice it was, leather is amazing.

The arches are only just starting to bubble, nothing major, rest of the car use to be stunning lol

Thats an easy fix i smashed mine up worse than that and got it back on the road, if its in good nick buy it back

looks mostly panel damage, only thing id do is take off the bonnet/lights/bumper and check you havent damaged the inner wings/chassis/subframe etc

going off them pics its a easy repair!

Mercs are slightly tougher than frenchies then hey!

Buy it back if you have to if not thats another another 1 of our best hot hatch friends going to the noose!
Get on ebay like lunner says and spend some crimbo bonus!

It's usually a tenth of the value of the vehicle, but there is talk of them stopping that, so get on the blower to them
