Insurance already written off as uneconomical repair....  ...unless you are good with bodywork plus whatever else is wrong with it, it will cost a fair bit...

My thoughts on it....

Alloy must be buckeled as its got the spare on

Its got 2 red warnings on....one for handbrake....not sure what the other one is.....plus its got the 'check' light on....but carnt see what for....

Plus what Jaime has said.....

If you can get 2nd hand bumper/headlamp/wing....might not cost too much.......but usually what happens on wheel damage is insurance comp get a geometry check done 1st...if thats out.....more than likely they will write it off

Plus its got one of those funny gearboxes in it  ;D

That's easy, because a manual gearbox, as we all know, is crap. The only 'Real' gearbox is an Auto box.  ::)
