Default crashed :(

So the bugeye took a battering.
Damage to bonnet,bumper nsf wing and headlight has gone missing. Back of the car is still mint and it still runs which is a plus

Is there a market for crash damaged scoobys or am I better just scrapping it? Was completely standard blue wagon. Now with added tree bark!

Cant you repair it? surely cost of repair would be less than taking a hit on selling it to a breakers?
Plenty of bits about for sale

Also does anybody know if the car is likely to be towed away by police or similar for being parked on the road outside my house with that damage?
