Oh deer !!!!!!

At least you are okay dude.

 

Sorry to see this Daz

 

Ah bad luck m8.Glad to hear you are ok

 

Daz it only looks like its crushed the front pillar with possible front end damage? I would still say that would be a cat C as I have seen worse be a cat C.

 

If that's the case then happy days I'll buy it back and salvage what I can from it.

 

Just seen this, gutted for you mate, I had a simaler incident with my last scoob in April, car was classed as at B, got downgraded to C and bought it back, PM me if you need any info,

Gaz.

 

Really sorry to see this Daz, hope you manage to sort something out. The main thing is your ok.

 

sorry to see this Daz, glad your okay.

 

It will def be a CAT B DazI'm afraid due to the structure damage.
I have a very friendly breaker if you need it mate

 

Sorry to see the car like that, glad your ok.

bez

 

At least you are okay.
Dose this mean daz will be going on a deer awarness course.

**** bags!!!

Only just seen this!

Obviously, main thing is, you're still with us. And none the worse for your ordeal (apart form being shaken and seriously hacked off , no doubt).

It was obviously never meant to be; you and this car. Far, far too much bad luck.

Out of the ashes, er, of the ashes lol, a 2nd Phoenix will arise though....

 

A deer ran out in front of my mate's car (jumped the bonnet I think! ), and the car ended up literally spinning on its roof!!!

 

**** Daz you haven't had the best of luck with this car, however as everyone has mentioned you have the best luck in walking away.........

absoloutely gutted for you, but onwards and upwards

alyn

 

Glad you're okay. The car is only a bit of metal at the end of the day it can be replaced.

 

Sorry to hear mate

I would think about not going through insurance depending upon what they will value the car at. By the time you pay the excess & pay higher premiums for the next 5 years due to a write off, it may not be worth making a claim, -especially if it is a Cat B.

Also as you are a dab hand with all this stuff, you could probably pick up a 4 door Sti or similar shell very cheap & do the work yourself?

 

I don't want a four door. If I do build another it will be a 2 door with either abw arches or a 22b kit

 

If you got a 4 door you could spend the spare cash on driving lessons


Only joking mate - glad to hear you are moving it on

 

I immediately cracked.

Sorry daz, but that was funny.

 

Couple more pictures.

Assessor is coming tomorrow.

 

Damn! A post nackered, B post kinked as with the the C post. Defo won't be a Cat C i'm afraid. Just gotta try and get it back from insurers presuming you haven't already.

Did you suffer from any whiplash or back pain after Daz? Lucky escape and glad you're ok

 

Just tell the insurance you want a settlement with keeping the car Daz.

 

That's exactly what I shall be telling the assessor tomorrow.

 

Certainly looks alot worse in the light.. Hope it all works out for you. Alot of blood sweat and tears into the build and of course money..

 

Just read your thread start to finish and have been left feeling sick. God knows how you feel have faith however you have completed a build that made the front cover of a respected tuner magazine set a 10 second 1/4 mile time and got to enjoy 600 bhp, all by the skill of your own hand. The detailed build will be a technical reference and inspiration for all of us for years to come you sir are a legend and will rise again! Someone who has this level of dedication to do things right will only be set back not defeated. Anyway you know you wanted to do a 22b look anyway chin up chill out for a bit and start again once you've tasted 600bhp you won't be able to give it up.

 

Ouch! Looks worse in the light in those pics. Quite buggered. Bummer mate.

 

New Carbon roof drivers t side, tug here tug there, that could easy be brought back too look like it did before, seen worse repaired. surely some one on here could do the jigging it wouldn't cost that much if you was to do the rest ya self,
Would be a shame for it to be on a cat list

 

sorry to see the car end up like this.SLAB have a closer look at the pictures of the A,B and C post's i really,really hope you were joking about jigging this car back on the road(lost a mate to dodgy cut&shut car repairs).re-shell with a 2 door well cool!!!!!!.
