Gutted for you mate. Had that happen to my gti few years back :angry:

If it will only cost 200-300 to repair then buy it back thats i did my gti and kept it 3 years on :grin:
to repair the rear quarter with a decent job you will be a lot more than that  :smiley:

Agreed, rear quarter is very expensive to sort to a high standard.

Alright fellas. I've seen a 2001 180 in thinking about buying. Were there any revisions on the later ones or am I good buying a 2001 instead of a 2003 like the one I've got now?

Thanks

they never made the 180bhp version in 2001 so the ad must be wrong or the car has been mapped  :smiley:

Not yet but it's a mess and my girlfriend said it doesn't drive properly so there's probably some suspension or chassis damage I guess. I'm pretty confident it's done for :-( I'm not one to hang about, I'll just get another and wait for some money to come my way. Life goes on

My girlfriend said she really aches today so will probably get some compo. Only got this crappy pic on my phone but you get the jist of the damage. You can see the bulge in the arch
