It is a eurowagen one yes, still got some cracks in it though! Takes a battering all the time!

Payday is coming round so updates will follow soon! New tyres, alignment, and a few touches here and there :cool:

Just lots bad news lol.

Wishbone pivot bolt snapped. Wing is f**ked, might need a new subframe cause the end of the bolt is c**t to get out. It also broke the outer cv joint and pulled the gearbox shaft flange out the box. Managed to sort the last two though.

Also front tyres are bald, but two on order, windscreen is well and truly f**ked, but might have sourced a 2nd hand one along with a tdi gearbox.

Other than that it needs tax, mot and a few other little bits to sort it out.

Gutted, how the hell did you manage to snap a wishbone pivot bolt.

I must say was on the verge of finishing off the windscreen with the wheel brace and then breaking down in tears. But I held myself together :D

Nah its just w*nk tbh. Swapping subframe is a massive ball ache.

Not bothered about wing damage as i needed two new ones anyway. Sorted the shaft and box.

A few mates helped out the night it happened. Managed to limp it to one of my mates workshop and weld a bolt in place. I can drive it but would worry about the tac's holding the bolt in place. I thought seeing as I need tyres, windscreen, etc, might as well do it all properly, sort anything else needed for MOT, tax it, mot it and get back on the road.

Then its time for new wings and some serious arch work.
