Yeah, i'm going over there with him to have a chat with the bloke, we are not expecting much TBH. Not going by today's standard of human being

Half expecting him to tell us where to go & that he wasn't driving OR that his car was parked on the road at the time and my mate hit it whilst it was parked OR he has no insurance OR he is on a ban!

He said 'I'll settle away from the insurance companies with you' but there is at least £5k of damage

The body kit is cracked
Steering arm bent
Alloy snapped
Bent strut
Kink in wishbone
Subframe twisted
Engine sitting closer to bulkhead on one side
Driver door wont open
Loads of offside damage from hitting corsa
Loads of damage to nearside front arch and door and rear arch

I check the floorpan, and chassis beam, seems to be in order, but can't really be sure as the nearside alloy is mashed and the car is sitting about 3 inches lower on that side.

I really feel sorry for my mate, he's spent so much time and money on the car, and this happens
