i'm assuming the crease on the roof line is due to the bend in the chassis? That's why they write it off then.

my cup chassis was bent just by letting the wishbone nudge up against a kerb at 40mph head on lol

Think we worked out that about 150-200 had perished in the last 3 and a bit years, just over 2200 were bought and the last reasonably accurate data we got on here (how many were taxed this year) was just over 2000 if I remember correctly.

may i ask how you managed that on that piece of road?

I believe the police term is driving like a t**t;) lol. He must ahve been going some speed to leave tyre rash like that on the road!!
 
Judging by the long unbroken skid marks in a straight line, It looks like a lack of ABS may have played a part in this - assuming of course the skid marks are from the clio!
