#17: Re: My 206, Solid Ice and a Rock Face Author: Rob2859, Location: HalifaxPosted: Sat Feb 04, 2012 8:35 pm ---- Oh that has not gone well. I have bent wishbones before but never totally snapped one. They are pretty thick. Must have hit it hard.
#18: Re: My 206, Solid Ice and a Rock Face Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 2:14 am ---- How can anybody say that's not worth repairing? Wishbones are designed to break, subframes are supposed to bend to save the body from damage. The photos don't show enough detail.

I would have bought three cars by now if you never replaced a few bent parts

Not real;y worth it on the value of the car though is it. Plus, who can say the damage you cant see. Its easy to replace parts you can see are broken.

It is my first, though, and it's worth more than that in my opinion. What would i be looking at repairing and how much would it cost/

#24: Re: My 206, Solid Ice and a Rock Face Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Sun Feb 05, 2012 4:08 am ---- Car needs a complete examination in my opinion if you want keep it,like the engine bay,suspension,centre pipes etc etc. If all those are okay then its all case of replacing the body parts and things you listed.
Apart from the things you listed that needs changing like wishbone,driveshaft.
You should be able to get the wing panel cheap from scrapyard if they have your colour and as for the side skirt maybe but i'm not entirely sure myself if that can be replaced too?? Unless someone can correct me on the side skirt.
Your probably won't be able to find front bumper like yours same colour but you will be able to get one cheap if you scout around on ebay or again check how much the scrapyard sells them.

You mean the sill that is welded on.
If you know what your doing with tools it could be an easy repair BUT I wouldnt trust 90% of the people on here to actually know what there doing / make a safe repair.

206 doesnt even have sideskirts.
You mean the outer sill panel, its perfectly normal for it to be hollow behind there on a car.
