Only a cars length away in wet weather? Sounds like your were up there arse tbh.
Shouldnt take much to fix your car. Went into the back of a Vectra C in my old Corsa. Cracked a light, bent the slam pannel. Took the radiator out and managed to jack the creases out and bend it back into place.
Hope you get it sorted tho mate, its not a nice feeling. Good luck with geting the Vectra repaired too. Sounds like thats going to be costly! The bloke didnt claim on me as he only had a few scracthes and was a company car!

I was not that close to them just didn't expect them to slam her brakes on for no reason.. And it's back on the road now just with standard headlights, my green GSi bumper, and my blue bonnet back on (N)

Go through the insurance ffs, I have claim (At fault) from about 5 days after I passed my test, ended up about £1400 from the insurance, fuck that, I payed £600 LESS the next year on insurance because quinn direct are robbing bastards.
£1500 on a 306 TD, TPFT, with quinn, 106 GTI with admiral for £780, FC. Explain that

Well my cars back on the road now, with the Carabic blue GSi bumper on the front, with the standard headlights and bonnet, i like it better with the bumper tbh, just needs spraying. I've got a plan for the GSi kit but we'll leave that as a surprise
And the carbon fibre bonnet is back in shape now just with cracks in the laquer so that will be fitted shortly.
And only one of the Depos got smashed in the accident so just need to source another
Pics. (Very bad pic quality)
