its going into a garage tomo to get it all sorted man said off top of his head it'll will cost about £250 maybe a little more.

thats everything sorted.

Hes a VW genius and he knows the car so it'll be back to normal condition soon.

She'll be claiming insurance yeh but it happened Thursday and we aint heard nothing from her.
claiming for our car they could say its a write off.

the thought had crossed my mind tupac2makaveli71

my father is looking for a little car at the right price so i'll talk to him about it and i will keep you posted ok mate.

would anyone like to see the damage to the polo??
the clio was worse off but i aint got any pictures of it

the panels are straight other wise the screw hole would have been out.

the corner of the bonnent have bent a little bit at the top of the light that may be it.

and its not a fair repair job the colour matches excellent for a 16 year old car. and its a new panel new bumper andnew girder behind the bumper
