My poor mini needs TLC

[Eggy7496]

Guys i hate NEDS!!!!!!!!!!!

Some prat did a hit and run on me!!!

Cracked my bumper in the corner in 3 places, smashed myheadlight to bits and scratched the side wing and dented the bonnet!!

Gonna need a new head light, front bumper and respray the bonnet which means new black stripes too!!

Awww its soooooo not fair!!!



The weird thing about it is if you stand about ten feet from the car u cant tell anythings wrong!

shows you that the bumpers are strong, as when i noticed my car the front and been pushed about nearly 2 feet to the left sitting at an angle!!

[Eggy7496]

minime can you do anything?

[Nenah]

Eggy - so so sorry to hear you bad news! hope you can get all sorted ASAP - insurance claim not an option?

[sleepyrascal]

You should try speaking to Chris at Newminiparts.co.uk. The handle crashed and battered up minis and salvage undamaged parts. I heard about them from The Oracle Martinsullivan. He will most likely have all the bits you need to repair at a fraction of dealer price.:cool: You might want to haggle with your dealer to get the parts fitted by them, unless you are happy to do it yourself! Fixings are readily available from dealers.

Thats a good price for 17" runflats - best I could get was £117 from Colins in Dyce , however when I was ringing round I was quoted a maximum of £195 quid each

[X30YES]

How do we get from Eric's trashed mini to tyres in two pages guys???

[The Dogfather]

You could have had 4 new federals and a can of tyre sealant for £250!
