Can't see why it would be a write off? Does'nt look like any pillar damage. Just wing, bonnet , headlamp and front panel.

The Suzuki looks worse off than the Lex!

Depends on what the value of the car is against the parts and labour costs.

Sorry it happened to you though. Good luck with the outcome.

Oooh S*&t that looks bad Chris, could this be bye again to Lexus :o :( feel for you mate!!

shouldnt be a write off unless there is some chassis damage..

new bumper, wing bonnet light and a good bodyshop will fix that.. lip looks like it can be saved..

have a good body shop and some of the parts if needed..

Sad to see, always admired how good your car looked. Hope you can bring it back to that standard. Sorry for you.

chris.... i feel for you mate, but by the looks of it that can be fixed.... i dont know if you can remember back to when i came of the A2 it cost the ins 7K to fix my car and they did as well :)

Bugger! Looks bad! Least everyone was ok...

Fingers crossed it gets resolved promptly and to a satisfactory outcome! Chin up Chris!

That's awful mate, hope there's no injuries. As the others say does look repairable but all depends on the value........hope it gets sorted for you ok

aouch thats bad.

if you had sold me the car that would have happened :D

going off the picture - working for an insurance company id pretty much say your on border line for Total loss mate. (sorry to say) i know how these engineers examine cars. its all based on their moods and they do not like modded cars.

its going to be abit of work but

take my advice, before it goes in to the garage. try and return what you can on it to standard.

its pretty much standard anyway as many of the late cars came with the skirts already fitted, the front skirt is destroyed so that fell off and theres nothing else really on it

to be honest i dont want it back, its never the same after a hard hit

Totally understand where your coming from mate, no matter how good a job the body shop does, it will never feel the same again

Posted

Very sorry to hear this Chris. I take it you are un-injured ? I hope it get repaired, bt understand what you mean about a big hit.

Don't forget if they do write it off, swap you old roll bars back on and sell your TTE Red ones :winky:

understand what u mean about not bieng the same again mate.just a thought and correct me if ime wrong.if it is a write off do you get first refusal to buy the car back at a very cheap price.maybe you could buy it back.source second hand parts and have it sorted.you may have a nice lot of dosh left over to maybe splash out on some goodies for it.did the same thing with a bike years ago and ended up with loads of nice extras on it.cheers m8
