Crashed! Large Pics

[stu1.2]

Hey, had an accident this morning, got sideswipped, its mainly just a dent in the rear quarter and scraped down all the side, with a dent in the door. I think I'm definately going to need a new door, front wing and bumper. Its the rear wing i'm worried about as I figure it may just end up being a write off. Anyway onto the pics!

Verdict?

[stu1.2]

I know its the B-post and rear quarter I'm worried about mainly

 

[stewart]

Looks nasty enough, as long as no one was hurt

 

[Dave H]

Yeah...thats a bit nasty along the bottom and the B pillar.Get it to the best body shop you can find

ouch

Oh dear, not so good. You going through the insurance? What year/ mileage is it?

 

[stu1.2]

Its an 2002, with 88,000 miles. No-one was hurt thankfully, cars can be replaced. Thing is I need the car back soon so won't have enough time to research a load of body shops. Anybody know any good bodyshops in the Shrewsbury area? I was planning on taking it to Renault in Whitchurch and getting their verdict on whether its safe to drive.

 

[teeach]

write off me thinks, they write nearly everything off these days,

 

[kic]

i'd say thats a write off unfortunatly, but if your as lucky as me it wont be

Oooooooooohhhh dude that's gotta sting!
Who's fault was it man?

 

[stu1.2]

Not my fault thankfully, car pulled out of a slip lane style junction without looking and reacted too late. Enough to try and swerve but not enough to avoid a collision unfortunately.

see what they say matey, probably will be driveable, you never know might be ok to repair as well

 

[stu1.2]

yeah I'm hoping it can be repaired, could do without the hassle of finding a new car.

 

[Tigger]

Main thing is the people inside are ok!
Hope you get sorted soon

 

[Hutchie]

take rear door card out and push it out with your feet that will fix 100% mine was lot worse

and *****ing around with the insurance and courtesy buses (if applicable)

 

[Ian_182]

Ouch

 

[Rage]

lmfaooo!
technique or what!

glad no-one was hurt mate...

 

[stu1.2]

Yeah not looking forward to dealing with the insurance people or courtesy cars. And I might actually consider taking the door card out and giving it a push with my feet, worth a try.

 

[Peperami]

Lol at the rear door card thing.

Expect insurance quotes to be around £2k to fix it, how much is your car worth... ?

 

[stu1.2]

I'm guessing 2002 1.2 dynamique with 88,000 miles will be worth approx 2k max. So i'm going to get quotes from a few places first and then weigh up the options before i make a decision

 

[Ad]

I'd expect that to be a write off... as Peps says around 2k damage, car is worth around 2.5k. no brainer.

 

[stu1.2]

Yeah I was expecting the worst, i'll get quotes for repairs anyway just before I have to go down the insurance route.

 

[R20 CWH]

Lol at the rear door card thing.

id say thats bang on the money for the repair.

probably be a tight one.
