  • Damage report!

    Posted on December 11th, 2007 Chris No comments

    It seems damage is actually less that can be assumed below. In this order, the only parts damaged are:

    1xBonnet

    1xDriver Side (left for us brits) front panel

    1xBumper

    1xDriver side headlights (one still works, barely)

    1xRadiator

    The cheapest part is the only mechanical one. The radiator. I have no idea to see if it’s intact or not, but it is bent, and the fan behind it won’t turn because of this. I won’t replace the grill, for as can be seen in the last post, only three prongy grill bits are damaged.

    So. Quotes. The quotes I got were:

    WING (FRONT DRIVER SIDE): £40 1months guarantee [Used]

    Delivery: £15

    Total price: £505.25 (Inc. Delivery)

    That was the most expensive one. I won’t be using that if it’s the last thing I do!

    Another I may use.

    As can be seen, this’ll cost me. Thankfully I have a credit card still unused, but at the end of the month, that’s another £25 bill to pay. Argh!
