Uh, so explain why someone would shop a car to look like that?
You don't get more money with more damage yaknow? ;)
 
Those wings do shatter like that. Of course it's not a photoshop.

Pretty easy repair really although that rear wheel does concern me.

How much would a straight 182 go for of similar mileage and age?

at no more than 4k, its pretty good money. repair wouldnt be that much, new rear axle would be biggest cost, although Id wanna have a good luck at OSF suspension to see what might be hidden there.

£8k maybe so 305 off for catagory damage say £5.6k
You need a new rear panel and door so that say £200 (you can use phase 1 stuff) unless your using it as a track car in which case kick the damage out then £30 for the rubbing side bit at the back
Second hand bonnet £50
New wing (might as well) £45 or so
Front bumper £150

Bin both wheels don't even risk it plus 4 new tyres (again not worth the risk IMO so that £300 say
Airbags gone off so £60 for a computer to be cleared and say £150 for the seat to be fixed and new airbags.
Rear axles a gonner use the disk etc new rear axle matt got in stock 182 proper ones £300 i think
Dmapers £100 for two rear ones
Thats not including painting I's say even with mates rates £1.3k

Ok if its a track car you don't need to pay to fix bodywork but there still say £700 worth of damage there. Strip the car for bits to pay for it and you might get away quite cheaply.
Would a new axle sort it or is there a chance it'll have twisted the chassis?
Might have done relitivly easy to measure and check but ht axle gives first so should be fine.

Shouln't be to bad fuel pipes a bit of a worry but its probably fine.

it depends on the impact to the front around the wing, it looks ok, but you know how fragile they are... lol.

Lightweight wings?

they are plastic so that in the event of a head on crash the the wings wud be pushed back against the doors, the doors will still open where as if they were metal then they wudnt if u catch my drift. its purely a safety thing.
