Well my car was supposed to be on stand at weekend, was looking forward to it and started cleaning it up.
On my way home from work last night some stupid one eyed woman doesnt give way to me on a mini round about n this happens, can anyone let me know if this will be a write off as i think it will.
Before:
Now:
Had no steering at all on the passenger side wheel, had to turn manually, i believe something is grinding in gearbox as that is right where she has hit

Wheel, wing, door, whatever damage behind the wheel + the sill, probably a write off because the corsa is only worth a few hundred quid.

Gutted for you mate  As said looks like its going to be written off. You could either find another arden and swap parts over (someone maybe breaking one?) or just blag a nice new corsa to come PVS in

Looks like a write off to me.
Possibly worth buying back and repairing.
Shame, I've passed your car loads of time recently, whilst parked at a unit just off the A350 as you come into/leave Westbury. Looked pretty smart.

Wow, that is scarily similar to what happened to me before Trax last year. Literally a few days before the show  Looks like yours was a fair bit worse damage wise though http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=516601
Unlucky mate

Thats gutting for you , id like to say yours wont be written off but as said corsa's arent really worth much so probably will be .
cant see her repairs being cheap either seen as the airbag went off
