I really wish people would stop writing these off, there will be none left by the time I can afford one :cry:

I think I remember this being for sale a while ago... In one piece. Is that damage really cat D ? Strangely, none of the airbags seem to have gone off.
 
Looking at it again, doesn't look as bad. Looks like quite a high impact, so may have missed the chassis. It's in Eindhoven in the Netherlands though... How much to fix this do you reckon ?

5-6k? Bonnet, bumper, wing, light, fixings. Maybe a radiator. Kidney grill. Full alignment, check to prove roadworthy. Remove that ghastly wrap and repair any paint damage from that. That gets you to 12k for a cat d that you'll have trouble selling on. There have been nicer ones for sale for similar money on here. If you could get it for 5k it might be worth a punt
 
What kind of a cock thinks it's a good idea to put that matt black shite all over a nice red car? With that few brain cells it's no wonder the bell end crashed it! :o

I am sure it was for sale earlier in the year and the ill-advised wrap discussed... In fact I may have started the thread. Not nice, but each to their own, and at least it wasn't sprayed.

Just you keep it taxed, serviced and clean for me Darren. I am sure you're not anywhere near ready to let her go yet :driving:

You're dead right there Bing, I love it to pieces, took my son out this morning and we were like a couple of Cheshire cats grinning from ear to ear :driving:

I would have sold it the other week and had the low mileage one but as you pointed out it would have been like being in a house chain! :D
 
I have just washed mine, got to go out and pick up a new suit later from Bluewater and then off out for a hoon with Mrs bing and (hopefully) a few off here in the PM tomorrow. Can't wait to drive it properly, been working at home for almost 2 weeks.

And I was honestly a gnat's bollock away from doing something reeeeaaaalllly silly last week :lol:

I was thinking of logistics......

I meet you at the guys house, we swap wheels, you pay me, I pay him we leave and get a pub lunch, I go North and you go South!! Lol :D :driving:
 
Isn't this a forum member's car?? I seem to recall someone had a front end impact a few months back in a matt black wrapped ///M in Holland.

Not the same one - I think that member is Dutch. Much worse impact, I think he reckoned it was a write off. Think it was Bichon ?
