ohh dear!! were do i start! well ok it had been raining during the day and when i got home from work my mate rich asked if i fancied a trip to st helens on the pull so i got ready and on the way down to his i lost control of my S after a rounderbout! (was doing 30-40max!) and the back end slid out and span once hit the curb straight up the path and hit a tree! luckily the air bags didnt go off and i wasnt hurt, the car was still runnin so i drove to my mates to inspect the damage! looks like bonet wings headlights,bumper,radior maybe? front panel maybe? ( i couldnt get the bonet it open and if i did it certainly wouldnt close again!) plus it was dark and couldnt see much. so guys please do respect this car if you hit her she will bite back HARD! and i had only just fitted my snorkel the day before!!:,,,( so am on the look out for some parts if any body would be so kind to point me in the right direction or someone might have parts they want to get rid of? i am seing this as a oppertunity to change to the new style head lights and a diff front bumper and a performance radiator,although anythink will do right about now just want her back on the road asap!

thanks guys!

bad luck..

go to the breakers link.. most of them are very reliable..

fixing yourself will be pretty expensive.. why not just use the insurance?

if any wheels hit the curbs, you will need to check the suspension and subframes.. and the steering rack is very easily damaged.
