Skezza Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) OK, I've had an accident in the ice and the green machine isn't looking so lean I'm trying to price up a repair asap, but the snow is causing issues for the repair guy to get out to give me a quote, I have to use a car for work so I need to make a decision this weekend. So basically, the cost to repair will dictate whether I try and get the green machine fixed or whether I simply buy a new Lupo straight away, can any of you give estimates:Bumper bar reinforcement girder has been hit and is definitely warped slightly centre ways.Bumper is smashed.Bonnet is clearly trashed as you can see.Driver side wing damaged, badly crumpled (potential to flatten?)Front grill is in pieces.Left (on picture, right from driver wheel) headlight has been ripped from the bracket so its more or less hanging in mid air right now.Left (on picture, right from driver wheel) indicator has been pretty much obliterated.Front brace that holds the indicators has been torn in halfPlus potential damage under the bonnet we cant see. The radiator is okay but its taken a knock and is slightly creased in the centre, I think it'll survive though. Car is still driveable. I got it home okay, and took it to my mates to get it checked and it still drives perfectly, but obviously some keen young copper will stop me one day and have me.I'm sorry you have to see such a sad looking little Lupo Edited January 18, 2013 by Skezza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lupo1.0se Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) This is how much it cost to repair mine with similar damage.Lupo O/S HeadlightFront BumperBumper SupportO/S WingFront Panel (With Radiator) came to £215.The breaker said he sold the bonnet for £100 (mine didn't need a bonnet though) and the indicator panel cost me £15 (excluding grill and indicators)So in total £330 is a good budget to repair that little lot.
