Another MR2 off the road... Advice needed please!
Hey everyone, Sad times have come as I had the experience of the unfortunate loss of my deuce in the wet the other night. Luckily, I came out unscathed with scratches here and there. Just wondering if I could get a couple opinions on what to do? I'd be happy to strip the car down as I would like to make a couple bucks instead of just selling it to a wrecker as the car was only third party. It's got some nice bits here and there, and was in prime condition before the accident. Motor still runs and all but yeah, it's taken quite the hit... Feel free to ask any questions or suggest any ideas. Cheers, Pat

Sorry to see mate, looks a nasty hit, glad everyone is ok.
Best bet, part it out & try to recoup some coin 😉

I know how you feel. I crash one as well. Part it out or find a cheap shell and swap what is not bent.

I'm glad you're ok. Cars can be replaced, people can't. I hope you can manage to get another one.

Nooo! Very sorry to hear Pat. Looks like quite a hard drivers-side impact, lucky you walked away uninjured.

Unfortunate. But they are meant to be used. It does happen.
As Mike says, part it out yourself and you will get some reasonable coin back.
Pat, are you able to grab another one and still come to Wakefield Park?
Would do you good. Back on the horse etc.
See you there.
