10 hours and crashed my racing blue 182

[makavelli]

the yellow car is his missis' new motor

 

[Dan Page]

they said i could buy it back for 3k.
i reckon if you done all the work yourself you could fix it for 2k max!

 

[AliasOmega]

Buy and break it on ebay.

 

[d4ve86]

i doubt u will make 3k from breaking it and selling the parts on ebay. u might just break even. but let us no what breakers is getting it if u dont buy it back someone can have the engine, interior etc.

 

[Jamie _Swales]

id buy it back, then fix it and reinsure it on your current policy. they cant charge you any more to add it back on cover

 

[Guy]

buy it for 3k and fix it, rip interior out, sell that and turn it into a track car

 

[Ross M]

^^ yeah i would say make it into a track car, and buy something cheapish to run normal.

 

[Dan Page]

i cant be arsed with any of the above, im gonna spend the pay out on a perfectly good straight un, although this one is only cosmetic damage!

 

[d4ve86]

fair enough, have u got the car at the moment or have the insurance company taken it?

 

[Dan Page]

shorade the garage that estimated it still have it!

 

[Dan Page]

why do you ask?

 

[d4ve86]

just wondered, if u had it you could sell some parts off before the insurance company take it away !!!!!

 

[Jamie _Swales]

im sure you could buy it back and sell it for more than 3k in the state its in

 

[Dan Page]

now they have pulled the bumper out properly so its not rubbing the wheel it drives fine! In fact I would happily drive it home as normal as it is.

its round the back of shorade, open with the key in the glovebox, i s**t you not!

 

[d4ve86]

[Fred@BTM]

so its written off??

all its needs is a bonnet, bumper, wing, grill, head light, slam pannel, and possible rear 1/4

£2-2.5K i would guess (depends if that rear 1/4 needs to come off

2 reasons why i wouldn't buy one

aircon
crappy traction control

plus cups are quicker

[Dodson]

Just looking back at first pics...is that a tear on the floor??
The poor 182 is just as gutted

 

[Austin-182]

I have bought this car today. Anyone know any recent history on it? I have had a search on here and can only see this old thread from 2006. It has a cs sticker so someone on here must have owned it since.

 

[imprezaworks]

14 years. Got to be the best revival ever

 

[Mr Burns]

I know Dan Page, that's about as helpful as I can be.

 

[Austin-182]

Cancel that. I decided against the car this morning.
