(Pls don't comment on how dirty the car is, I've been very busy in the garden earning important football browny points :wink:)

Sorry to see this. Feel for you. Horrible. Hope the fellow had insurance. Were you stationary? 100% his fault when you take it up the jacksy. :sick:

When I first saw the title of this thread, I thought you meant you'd been shafted by that Lithuanian guy on eBay who sells RNS510s. Sorry about the bump, BTW :smiley:

shunting a GTi should be a crime in itself.

Any idea on what kind of work it's going to need? I'm hoping that it's just cosmetic damage?

It looks very much cosmetic unless the exhausts are not lined the bottom diffuser looks as though it may just push back in but will need replacement due to damage,

Depending on the price of the diffuser then maybe a couple hundred/

First impressions aside, (no speaky English) I feared the worst insurance wise, but his details all checked out and he's fully covered! :shocked:
One phone call to Admiral, the car is booked in for an estimate on Monday, & I apparently get a like for like hire car whilst mine is being fixed  :smug:
I think the bumper & diffuser will need replacing and the exhaust checking over.
