i think its repairable. going to need a new rear end as both wings have buckled and the spare wheel well has folded, boot is destroyed but somehow the bumper is intact as are the lights :confused: . it still drives with no strange noises. I'm just hoping the bodywork damage hasnt gone too far into the car for it to be repaired.
U have to show them respect in the wet theyare a nightmare, I have come close a couple of times much better now I have 18's though

ouch. :cry: That's not good is it. :(
How the hell did the bumper survive, that's mad.
Phil might have some panels etc.

I know couldnt figure out how the bumper and number plate survived, but at least i dont need to replace them.
Like I said in the PM mate - i've got a full shell there (minus the front end) so anything you need we'll just cut it out of that!!

Cheers Phill :thumbs:
Just gotta find out now how much its going to cost to repair, i'm going to have to get a weekend job and become a hermit for a while so i can save up the cash.
By the looks of it i may be getting a 1996 primera 1.6 as a runabout till the 200's back on the road.

Bummer mate !
Hope you get it sorted soon.
Us welsh lads are having a bit of year of it aint we!
I was talking to Big Tone earlier and we worked out that there will be 2/3 200's at the next meet as all the rest are fecked :wack:

so whats the general thought on this then? Repairable or fecked?
i thought it was generally screwed if the boot was creased/bent and destroyed beyond recognition so it will all depend on if you can sort that out

rocketrob in the free bodywork advice bit reckons its repairable but at a cost.
I better start saving!

D'oh. Fcuking rain :annoyed: You have to be so careful when it rains after a dry spell, soooooo greasy. It can happen to anyone so don't beat yourself up :( It'll be OK :thumbs:
Bad luck mate, i have learned not to drive quickly in the rain from previous cars. Unfortunatley the front of my S14 now looks like the back of yours - this has taught me to always leave it in gear when parked (it rolled down a hill into a tree) lesson to everyone DONT TRUST YOUR HANDBRAKE! :wack:
