tow bar on the back of an old Mondeao!  :sad:

been there, had pretty much the same crash. just replaced the front end. bumper, grill , headlights, slam panel with rad and fan. should be able to pick up a whole front end from someone breaking a mk3 for around £80 i would have thought, although you might not need the rad and fan.... headlights look alrite in the pics....

first inspection thought i could get away with just sorting bumber, rad, fan etc but had a good look at it today and think there is more to it than that. drivers side ring as more of a bigger gap from the bonnet. . . plus where it took the impact looks like the frame work is bent.


the ladies fella had already got the ball rolling with the insurance when i rang him so my car is being picked up weds morning. i know they will write it off so will just have to go from there.  :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

Will be so so gutted to see it go. . . might sound sad but just been sat in it for the last half hour. put so much time and effort into her since xmas and has been washed on average twice a week sometimes three if needed just to keep her gleaming white!


got a Vauxhall Astra as hire car to smoke round in. . . 58 plate and feels nothing like my 14 year old golf!  :cry: done nothing at all today apart from think! dunno where to go from here???? depends on what the pay out is. (prob next to nothing)


Any advice or more of a what would you do? first time i had to do anything like this so really dunno whats best??

how about buying it back from the insurers once your claim has gone through if you think it's repairable and unworthy of scrapping. You'll probably get it back for next to nothing and you'll have your insurance money to spend on it.
