Bummer 
skidded in a carpark on wet ground and crashed straight into a bollard
car went to the garage and had a phone call just now that it is beyond mechanical repair :/
got pics if anyone is interested.
they have offered me £1995 already but my dad said that he will ring them up and get as much as he can so will be more than that im hoping!
time to start again i guess
another saxo will be on its way shortly i bet

That is not a write off...
Tell the garage to fuck themself's and get a second opinion.. or fix it yourself.
New bumper - 30 quid
New lights - 60 quid
New eyebrows - 17 quid
New bonnet - 100 max
The damage does not look like it could have even come close to bending/twisting/breaking the chasis

If i stand right that bit off the front can be replaced?.. go to a scrappy and get a saxo with no front end damage and take it.
