Default worst year so far WITH PICS

just on the way to college this morning and i worte my car off!! well i think its a write off
i was doing about 20 and slammed on my brakes!
skidded into the back off a audi A3!
my car just went under the back bumper and scratched it abit!
the car was a company car so there going to have to claim on there insurance as its a company car!
it looks like my slam panel is the only bad thing, im not to botherd about the light radiator and bumper as there easly repairable!
i dont no wheter to try repair it or sell it as bits!
this is my car about 2 hours ago
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=175308
i will get pics up later of the damage!









when i got home from college i put all the standard bits back on and started stripping the front down!
it was quite fun

Any suggestions on what to get for a new car or do you recon i should fix it?

You dont HAVE to claim on your insurance! After payng your excess your no better off then if you bought the parts that need replacing and fitted! So the company car is going through there insurance to have it repaired?
