MVP Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 PROVISIONALLY SOLD PENDING DEPOSIT I have done some thinking and sadly I need a car sooner than the repairer would take to fix my beast. My partner is a teacher and needs her car back, not to mention it costs me £150 extra per month to commute to work rather than drive (sad reality of public transport, but that is another matter!). Details Silver, NA, Manual 117406KM MOT until Sept 2012 18 inch rims Full stainless steel exhaust CAT 1 Alarm Induction kit Mint interior (with the exception of the gear knob cover) Part history Alpine Headunit Damage O/S front wing O/S rear quarter O/s front tyre O/S front light Minor bumper adjustments (in the picture you can see how it has raised the bonnet, although the bonnet is fine). Having spoken with the insurer they are not going to register this as anything, i.e., it is classed as cash settled and won't be classed as a cat-d. Happy to provide evidence of this once I have received the formal information from them. Ideally I would like to leave this to the repairer who reckons he can get it back together for between £1200-£1500 inclusive, despite the almost double insurance estimate (the bumper alone in his estimate was £1100 as he got a brand new OEM one!). I don't have the time to wait for this to be ready and before the accident it was a really clean example. Happy to take more pictures and people are free to come take a look, although this will need to be infrequent as it is still at garage where the estimate was made. http://img805.imageshack.us/img805/4288/img0181xj.th.jpg http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/8233/img0183p.th.jpg http://img811.imageshack.us/img811/9624/img0185copy.th.jpg http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/2388/img0186yc.th.jpg http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/5135/img0187copy.th.jpg http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/6229/img0188copye.th.jpg http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/1078/img0189dd.th.jpg http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/6401/img0190iv.th.jpg http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/6439/img0193zw.th.jpg http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/29/img0194copy.th.jpg http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/3339/img0197copy.th.jpg One before damage http://img607.imageshack.us/img607/7201/samcar18100911copy.th.jpg £1500 ono Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
