You'd think these people would learn how to spell the maker's name properly, wouldn't you? Misspelling means searches are less likely to find the car. However, that could make it an opportunity for someone on here.

I'd love to take it on as a project, but funds and time do not permit at the moment!

On the plus side the engine is in the back and not damaged and it looks like the air bags haven’t gone of. On the down side I bet the cost of body parts are massive and in limited supply and you would probably have to wait ages to get them, wouldn’t surprise me if a wing would cost £1500 and a bonnet £2000 and then all the bits and bobs plastic clips. I recon £8000 plus for parts then paint on top not including your time. That’s why they have not repaired it ?

You are 100% right just replying to the previous post about having a project, modern stuff is a no go, I bought a Moto Guzzi 1400cc californiana one year old 2 years ago the guy had just dropped it when stopped and smashed the headlight which also has the information stuff in it, the insurance just payed the guy out for a new bike.
Bought the bike from the salvage yard and then bought the new head light and bits and bobs from the Guzzi dealer had it all back together in a day, the bike would not go had to pay out £750 to Guzzi for the bike to be re programmed, it’s just a scam all this modern crap.

Looks as though there is significant sill damage as well so that could be an expensive fix.
Needs a new driver's seat as well- I see they have cleaned it but you'd never get rid of the smell.

Odd that airbags didn't go off given the smashed windscreen and clobbering the front and side has taken.
