GHanson2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 1) What do you mean "Loved"? It's not beyond repair, £50 could sort that! Get on Ebay - Lower Arm - £12 - ARB Stabiliser - £7 - DriveShaft - £25 Cmon and why the hell do you keep changing the thread title? thats fooking annoying!

KNITERIDER Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 gotta love garage prices, if they work like a car insurer then yes rite off straight up, if not claim the bugger...saying that you could make a pretty penny buy it back and fix it for under £100 buy it back and mod it more i would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchkev Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 (edited) you gotta make your mind up, as ross said, get em to right it off and buy it back, or get it fixed - your choice, no-one elses!

sutty2006 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I did similar damage to my escort when i got pulled out on and hit a kerb. My n/s/f wheel was touching the wing! Recovery - 15 quidWishbone - 15 quidRoll link - 6 quidSecond hand shocker - 10 quid And a brand new GTi wheel + tyre a month later was - 50 quid. Cost to fit - Free as i did it my self. Didnt have to do the drive shaft but it wont cost you any more than 500 quid to repair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madxrcabby Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 which means you can take it where ever you want to get it done then , its repairable easy , if you want rid though write it off , or buy it back parts wouldnt cost no more than 50-100 from a scrappers at the very most !

tomm Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 as said,i would get a mega high repair quote, take the money and fix it yourself for sub £100 and pocket the rest. i know of someone who had a tile slide off of mcdonals roof and land on his bonnet. He got a quote from nissan for a new one took the money and bough a carbon fibre one haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
