Does look fucked that, hard to tell really without seeing what it looks like underneath and with panels removed. Have seen worse repaired, so might be ok!

I'd say yes. Genuine Mitsi panels are a fortune.

Has a good pre -accident value being a 360 so might be repairable.

Bent chassis would be a right off, but with a roof crease she will deffo be written off!

prob a 15k car. depends what other 1/4 is like.
bumper
boot lid
1/4
light
maybe boot floor

insurance might repair that car....prob got 7k to play with..if they dont i'd be buying it back and fixing it myself

EDIT EDIT; if the roofs gone its a write off

Probably a write off tbh mate.

Mine had a shunt from the rear N/S and didnt look to bad however the chassis leg was crumpled and the bulkhead between the boot and rear seat had a crease so it took a weird twist during the accident.

Repair costs came to over £10K as the AYC pump was also damaged so that alone was around £2K IIRC

I took the money and ran like £uck

Doesnt look too bad does it

I'll buy it off him if he buy's it off the insurance company.. can throw in some extra cash for his trouble!

Just what I'm after if it does get written off.

Happy to pay him a good bit over what he pays to get it off the insurance co.

PM me if interested.
