Phate is an unknown quantity at this point
My 180 - The repair!

Right,

The following needs doing:

Gotta be jigged as the front chassis rails have been pulled down - this will be relatively cheap (lots of family in the motor trade you see )

Going to replace the following:

Both rads
New Bonnett as due to the chassis being bent the old one is twisted and fubarred
back beam for the steering rack + steering rack
lower arms for both sides
nearside shock absorber + y section attached to it
both headlights
front bumper + splitter
nearside wing is twisted
upper mount for the gearbox is broken
the gearbox
nearside drive shaft
drivers side engine mount

and.....*drum roll*....a leaking water pipe!!!

Depending on cost of the jigging I'm looking at around £1200 to fix it + X amount of spanner hours and swearing with my mate

I thought it was going to be A LOT worse to be fair - I'll get a confirmed price for parts tonight, and if I'm gonna go ahead with it I'll strip the front end on Saturday and take it for jigging on Monday.

During it pictures will be taken and I'll keep this thread as the main thread as progress is made to it!

Stay tuned

EDIT: Just had a confirmed price of £650 for the parts thought it was gonna be SO much more than that kinda happy now!
