right no pictures yet because both me and bf have lost cables or dics for out phones.
so basically i started off with a 1.1 last november time then 5 weeks later i went across a give way juction didnt give way. A suzuki vitara plowed into my passenger door with bull boors. basically writing my car off since then its been stood but in the last weeks we've decided with the good weather to repair it. my dad has a big engineering company so he can weld and spray to an extent. hopefully be repaired by next week but we having to put a whole new rear quater and door on plus a new rear beam.
up to now my dad has put new beam on . my dad and bf have started drilling all the spot welds out today got a few left round the window then weld new quater on and also theve put the new door on .
modifications on car are none lmao
i have a set of freshly paint 205 gti's in moon dust bluey lol 195/45/15 
also just given a bonnet to a body shop to have light extensions and badge smoothed.
future mods no idea lol

Was the chassis not damaged by the impact? Would've thought bullbars would do more than just cosmetic panel damage.
