#1: My 180 crash pictures Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 11:03 am ---- OK so I had a little accident earlier. After getting the car running well again a week later this happened. I had just cleaned out throttle body, replaced coolant temp sensor, cleaned VVT and serviced. Couldn't believe it.
I also broke my toe

Is it a write off?
#3: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 11:30 am ---- Don't know yet. Havent had a chance to look properly yet as I can't walk. What other people reckon?
#4: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: iainlovatt, Posted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 11:50 am ---- New bonnet
New left side middle grille
Hows the wing?
Headlight will be a pain to deal with as the frame that holds it in is fragile and will cause the headlight to probably sit up too much after a little bump like that! ,,
If you go through insurance its GONE! Almost a guarantee!
At a guess on parts,
Bonnet £50
Grille £20
#5: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 11:58 am ---- The wings don't appear to be bent. Gunna get a quote from insurance as its free and no obligation. Heard a hissing noise afterwards so suspect the radiator is cracked. Headlight not working too

#8: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: DSWR, Location: SolihullPosted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 2:25 pm ---- It's a write off, doesn't look like you've got any chassis damage though, if you can avoid the insurance, just repair it yourself.
#9: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 4:30 pm ---- What happened? Damage doesn't look to bad tbh.
#10: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: L5_UKS, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 4:39 pm ---- Doh, Just as it was coming along nicely too.
But as above doesn't look that bad?
#11: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: DSWR, Location: SolihullPosted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 6:17 pm ---- looks like you hit something high up? as the bottom of your bumper is mint. Lorry? lol
#12: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: DanT, Location: Torbay, EnglandPosted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 6:36 pm ---- Ahh man that sucks! Wrong time of year too! I feel for you.
I'd say
Slam panel
Bonnet
Grille
Bumper strip
Possibly Radiator, Headlight/s depending on damage to the back and hopefully not much else as it doesnt look like it went too far back.
Worst bit will be sorting out the shut lines around the headlights etc tbh, but should just need a bit of tweaking i'd have thought.

No it was a Ford Fiesta Mk6. The fronts quite low anyway and with the heavy braking the bonnet took the damage rather than the bumper.

#20: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: JamieM, Posted: Tue Dec 17, 2013 1:51 pm ---- I didn't see this thread! s**t man glad you're ok!
Insurance will most likely write it off, if you can do it yourself it would probably be a better idea if everything is straight, guess the only way to properly tell would be to strip it down and check it all.
At least you're ok though that's the main thing it's just a car at the end of the day.
#21: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: RockRulz, Location: Harlow, EssexPosted: Tue Dec 17, 2013 2:19 pm ---- Oh man thats not good...toe as well as gorgeous little PUG!

Nah it went above my price range, still went cheap for what it was, but to get a trailer down and back up to Scotland costs a bit :\
#27: Re: My 180 crash pictures Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Thu Jan 09, 2014 11:54 am ---- Yeah I bet. Was a nice car. I really looked after it but would be great if the new owner showed up on here and I got to see it again.
