Default Damaged cossie

My friend Ronnie was involved in an accident in his saff this week ,he posts on here but his pc is down so he asked if i would put some pics up,
He is gutted, other driver (german guy on hols) has admitted liability to the police ,basically pulled straight out on him ,never even had time to brake he was kept in hospital over night for checks and is back home at the mo ,get well soon mate ,also Danny boy off here was in the car and also taken to hospital for checks
salvage will be bought back and a mk2 escort project will be done
Some pics


Just the alternator snapped

Force of the impact bent the wheel






Bumper in the runabout







Gutted for you Ron

i was travelling at about 40-45 mph i hit him at that speed! he pulled straight in front of me didn't have a chance to do anything, my steering wheel bent and the brake pedal is under the accelerator pedal from where i braced my self for impact wasn't the best experience i've had to be honest

thanks all for your comments

kevmk2 yes hopefully with a bit of help a mk 2 will be sorted always said i wanted to do one after the cossie started the engine yesterday to make sure it was ok thanks to the twins for bringing their jump leads round and helping out much appreciated lads

cheers, no they are full leather their mint too!!

they breathalised me why i was in the ambulance all strapped up with neck brace and everything, cant fault them though really helpful they've wrote the report out that he is the offending vehicle, they wanted to arrest him for dangerous driving and driving without due care and attention but cant because he has gone home to germany!!! how stupid is that!!

Bad new, but as said, every cloud.

Break and sell what you can, retain what is needed and with the injury payout you should have all you need to create a special project.
