Crashed the ZS
 

Was involved in an accident with the ZS today. Someone went into the front of me. Think it might be a write off. Here is a pic from what i can see it needs:

Front Bumper
Bonnet
Wing
Radiator
Fans

omg, saw this and my heart jumped into my mouth! I hope you are 100% well?. Am truly gutted mate, just when I wanted to meet up and get pics together! will you fix it even if it is written off?

That is terrible news, so sorry to see that, is everyone okay though?

I hope it can be repaired, it is a shame if another is allowed to be written off.

I would say thats definately a write off..........

Personally...........I would keep my lips closed and get it repaired if you want to keep it.

Sorry to see this bud.........bearing in mind the low number of MK2's about I would seriously consider keeping it and funding the repairs privately if at all possible.

Oh.........and before I forget.......if you have any problems with panels or parts feel free to give EMS a ring on Monday to see what they can do....... 01634 388999.

As long as you're OK, the metal doesn't matter.

From the picture and point/angle of impact, she probably needs 'pulling' back in to shape. As a 2005 car in good condition, it would be worth what? - £7k ish? Provided parts can be sourced (second hand bits should be available) and the chassis is 'bend-backable' (which it probably is) the job is do-able, but eating in to the value of the car making it touch and go for an 'economical' repair. I hope they fix it for you. It's a nice looking car (well most of it still is). If they decide to write off, you could do the same as MGJohn over at .org and get it fixed yourself (he took the insurance pay-out, bought the car back from them and fixed her up). Have a look.

Again, it seems your OK (if a little P'd off) - that's the main thing.

All the best,

Gary.

yeah im fine it was a low speed crash. Just waiting on the insurance getting back to me.

Ive done that much to it i wouldnt want to let it go so i'll see what the insurance say

gutting mate wos it the other drivers fault?

well he was on the wrong side of the road passing parked cars. its quite a blind corner with cars parked on it

dazultra2000 on.org had the same with his mk2 but got all the parts with a bit of too'ing and fro'ing so its possible
