Unless you can fix the lot for £1200 I cant see any profit in it. | |

Even if you repair it though its still going to have this crash and Cat C hanging over it so I don't see how you'll be able to check its value through Parkers. | |

it looks pretty straight but personally i would still get it up on a jig and all measured which may cost you about £130 but will save u alot of time if it is bent at all, | |

so your going to have 5k + in a car thats on the vcar reg thats only worth 7k and not on v car its not really going to be worth doing it to sell on as you wont get that much profit out of it | |

Steve, your guess is as good as mine, the pics are a tiny bit misleading tho, the damage is to the NSF, the other headlamp etc was fine just removed to inspect the damage.. | |

wonder the bags went off with no chassis damage, not really that common bags going off really, only on hard hard hits mostly.. | |

quote:You're probably right. We charged £400 for a front end re-spray on new parts (but not including) on a Lupo in the same colour. Not sure what Matt has up his sleeve,but he does work at a VW garage so might be able to aquire the parts ;) at a nice price... | |

quote: im a panel beater by trade and by glancing at those pics i cant see it gettin fixed for 5/600 with no labour charges for a start it needs a bonnet wing prob be 2/300 for those alone new and genuine paintwork (even at mates rates) and price of paint/ lacquer/primer etc etc chassis alignment, if needed (id say a big chance of it) needs light front panel etc etc which you may get in a scrappy etc etc | |

quote: It'll only be that match if he is paying no labour what so ever. The repair from my crash came to £1700 all in :! and that wasn't even a write off! That's a pretty expensive car compared to mine. For them to write it off, that is a lot of damage imho. [Edited on 03-05-2007 by deano87] | |
