Another MG to the Graveyard!

Got a call a work today from the wife to say someone in a van had hit her ZR parked outside the house. A car had pulled out in front of him causing him to hit her and then go into the wife's car. Apparently he was tanking it down the hill though



















Front end damage is from where the car was punted into the back of the neighbours car and all the coolants now gone!

Its mrmick (Dad) I feel sorry for the most after all the effort that went from turning a £500 rubbish car back to showroom condition only for some morons to write it off

Sorry to hear that mate.
Don't let her goto the scrappy. Try and buy off the insurance. Then repair her

Shame but looks to be a tough repair and not worth it tbh.

Sorry to see the damage, poor old Mrmick.

Can see him waving his magic over another one.

Glad no one was hurt, no contest really van V MGZR.

Hope you get a good settlement, dont forget, never accept the insurance company's first offer. But with Mrmick around, I'm sure he wont let you be done!!!!
