Re: West Bay Valver Photos
Unlikely the chassis will be too damaged, you will need to check the door shut gaps at the rear between the doors and rear quarters looks as tho the nearside gap has closed up a bit, nonetheless repairable i would think with the right equipment such as a puller on a jig, boot floor and rear panel etc repairable you could cut these from another car. all depends on how much you are prepared to spend, how did it happen did you reverse into a bollard?
Technically in insurance write off i would think.

100% write off, but I reckon the rear panel has probably done its job, and that the shell isn't too bad.

Re: West Bay Valver Photos
What were you hit by? A snowplough? All the damage is at a point, rather than across the whole bumper...
I have zero patience for your tedium.

Re: West Bay Valver Photos
I was hit by a Volvo. His near side front hit me coming out of a junction.
He must of thought I was going to a slip road to join the main road.

Re: West Bay Valver Photos
Sorry to see this. Looks repairable though.
In any dealings with the insurers make sure you reference the recent article in Classic CAr Weekly where 16v were valued (rightly or wrongly!) at £3250 or so.

Bear in mind a nice white ph2 recently sold for £3500 too, and yours looks pretty good from here.

Re: West Bay Valver Returns
Obviously I can't see underneath, but from the outside that looks a very nice job. Better than 90% of the others I've seen repaired recently. Wasn't Washington coachworks by chance?
