I hope that's not my car lol! My neighbour did manage to scuff my car on Saturday morning as he reversed past it.
Fingers crossed nothing too bad for whoever it is.

That'll be mine Neil.
Suspension mounting points are all ripped out of the chassis so it's away to the salvage company tomorrow

If it has torn the suspension mounts out from the chassis then it's a new chassis. Last time I heard that's 5k ish plus vat. And that's before anything else. Probably end up at Copart.

Damage looks similar to my 2006 111R when an errant overtaker ran into the front and along the side.
Chassis was replaced and IIRC total bill was around £17k

It will be a CATB, so they can not sell it back to you, and you will not be able to bid for it at auction unless you have a waste disposal licence, or get somebody to bid for you that has one.

Not so sure tut, have a look through fleebay and you will be surprised, read shocked, at what can be bought. Some are listed as cat d as well as c's and ripped out suspension mounts are common. It would appear that not everyone knows the chassis is unrepairable.
this,
prbably the worst one,
another one,
at least this one comes with some parts, buy a cat c, please

Now on HBC if anyone wants a project.
Don't understand how it can be a Cat C with the amount of chassis damage it has.
