Oh for Gods sake. Is this a member of your family or a piece of metal we're talking about here?

I take it the scrappy guy wouldn't pose for pictures :D
-

No wonder you posted no pics of the damage sooner...

The cill cover hides a multitide on sins, 2 doors, floor pan, A pillar, B pillar, alignment was out afterwards as well.
Had a quote of £2500 to repair.
-
Not easy to get a picture of the damage, as side on views hid the fact it was pushed in.
Oh front wing as well.
Could not close rear passenger door properly.
-
Another one for miggy heaven. :'(

Both significant repairs on mine were costed at over £4k each...
Combined repairs cost me less than £3k, and everything was replaced as required...
Last Cat C was effectively due to three stone chips :o so never believe what an insurance estimator says :-X
That said, what's done is done, you made the call as you saw fit :y
-
Ouch that was a whole lot of damage .. What happened if you don't mind me asking?
At least you got allot of parts off it and didn't just crush it

It was at the stage that if I had have gone for a repair I would have to have borrowed a couple of grand and been off the road for a week, now if the car had been newer I would have done that, but it was just starting to show its age, wheel arches needed painting, front bushes yet again needed replacing, I was looking at £300 minimum as well to get the MOT (tyre, exhaust, bushes) so no matter what about £2000 to £3000

Just driving home, a BMW (3) in front of me swerved into a Peugeot (no idea what model it was a ball of twisted metal) coming the other way, the out of control peugeot spun into me and pushed me sideways quite hard.
£18 years of V car ownership over.
I would have got an Omega C except for the simple fact that they never made one.
-
Main thing is at least your o.k :y Maybe you could replace it with a VXR8 ... but then again they are very pricey and only a rebadged Holden Monaro

I tried a well recommended and not overpriced repair place and he had a good look and said over £2000, about £2500 and second hand doors would not have saved too much.
-
It seems it was time to say goodbye :'(
-
I think I'm going to be sick.
-
Nice ;D
Real classy...
-
There's a lot of miggy love out there Stemo ;D

You'll never look forwards either :D
As they used to say "That'll be a Daewoo" *paper bag charged extra* :D
-
Chevvy Orlando = Vauxhall Zafira
Chevvy spark = vauxhall mocca
Chevvy captiva = vauxhall antara
You'd all love one really :)
-
Ifbutmaybe ;D
Don't forget Stemo, that you already wear a bag on your head for medical reasons, so the normal rules of Daewoo ownership don't apply to you ;D
