Default URGENT - Please read..and sorry if its in the wrong bit

Please help. I gave the old man the keys to the new car last night and he has bought it back BENT!!! he was driving along with another subaru owner and somehow got it wrong and hit a kerb..

I have took it into the garage and thankfully looks like just a n/s rear trailing arm thats damaged.. but I cant find anywhere to get one from. The garage has rang up two places and they dont stock them.

Is it suabru parts only.??? does anyone have any numbers that may be able to help??

Thanks..
and again moderators sorry if this isnt the right place..

Thumbs down

Almost certainly Subaru parts only. Be prepared to part with one arm and one leg. Sorry.

suspect Subaru part and even then it might not be a stock item. couple of breakers on here so have a look in parts for sale (depending on year) Also tell him driving privileges are revoked if he can't drive properly.

alooy must be pretty well hammered too. hope they've checked it over properly.

thanks all... and I dont even want to know what he was doing.. okay on inspection of the road there is something on the surface but he is no BANNED from driving all but our 1.2 fiesta..I wouldnt mind but he has 20 years driving experience and no own fault accidents..


managed to get a part.... someone had one laying around..(dont know why, when or how) whole repair is costing me (sorry him ) £80 so not to bad.. and I want a new set of wheels too..seeing as he is also blaming crappy tyres..

and yeah its been all lazer checked for any other damaged etc... and luckily no other damage seems to have been done.. well except for serious DENT to his pride..
