Ouch, looks like there is no great panel damage though, and hopefully all can be cured by a good bodyshop paint job and some TLC. New Monza's/tyres and wing mirror obviously. Shame to see a GTI in the best colour in this state though. On a positive note, I have just had my bonnet repainted and the paintwork/finish is fine, good match and no obvious signs of repaint - downside was the poor masking and overspray on the car - make sure you inspect it fully upon collection :wink:

Sorry to hear bout this mate.Theres nothing more annoying than knowing your in the right and arguing with some old tosser who shouldnt even be allowed to drive!! Although your car is driveable theres nothing worse than driving your car damaged.
Anyway hope you get sorted and get yer car back when fixed in tip top shape.
Am i right in thinking that is Bradbury services?I know the road well.

IANAL, but 100% the other chap's fault IMHO.

Sorry to hear about this, you may have seen my own thread on a crash yesterday.

Fingers crossed for us both!

As said in the previous threads. My reply is a bit slow but Im sorry to hear about the GTi but as said previously. It could have been far worse for you and the car.

Good luck with the repairs.
