Found a blue 180 for 2200 with 60k on the clock. Might have to buy that I think.  Are we saying my car is definitely getting written off and I should buy another?

Thanks

we can guess all day long but your best speaking to your insurance company but looking at the damage they probably will due to repair costs

Yeah I'll give them a bell and see what they think. As long as everything goes smoothly this may not be so bad. Low miles on the new one I might get plus my current one did have a few issues. Clearly I'm a glass half full kinda guy :-) let's wait and see, ay

sometimes mileage can mean nothing  my old s-reg in the drive has done 80odd k but had a y-reg 4mo with 195k before i sold it

Once I've modded it I'm going to get a remap and the one I've got now has done 110k so a new fuel pump would have been a good idea. Won't need to do that on the newer one. Also I've of the studs is broken on my turbo so I was probably gonna get a custom exhaust so they sorted it all out. This way I'll iust get a decat downpipe and catback exhaust which will be a lot cheaper. Silver linings....

my s-reg is on its 3rd fuel pump  and as said its only done 88k so dont think a car with less miles will have less problems

Haha well cheers for pissing on my fireworks. I guess I'm in for a lot of disappointment over the coming years

have your insurance company decided what is happening with your other car

I had a missed call today so I googled it and it was a salvage company. I think that says it all lol. They said it's down on there system as a write off bit engineers will still check it out before any final decision is made
