Sadly though with a bent subframe its not worth fixing. Useful for parts for someone I expect?

Change the subframe and wing.....done. Bonnet could be taped, lights replaced. Slam panel would need some bending.

I've never changed a subframe before, but it's just nuts and bolts at the end of the day! Seems a shame, the 19D estate is the most trustworthy BX around.

Perhaps surprisingly, changing the subframe is an extremely straightforward job...

Lol well if someone wants to go ahead and buy it I will happily donsate a headlamp and indicator free of charge towards it! I imagine it will be written off with the DVLA but thats no problem.

Possible BXAGON rat look BX?
