Nuthing irrepairable but i had it check and the chassis is very twisted as is the whole front of the car from the windscreen foward.
I was also told it could be fixed but it would be expensive and most probaly would never be the same again which i would never know until the car war back on the road driving, And considering i was trying to sell it anyway to buy a 4 door i thought i would just buy a sedan and start again.

Na sorry mate they will always come in handy for the sedan.

Ok hears what happened and yes i know im a dick and its my own fault.
Going to fast in an area i didnt know to well cam up over a crest which looks like it continues as a straight road.
Well as you may guess it wasnt it was a 90 degree right hand corner had no chance at stopping lock up the brakes which only wiped off about 30km/h before a hit a large sqaure gutter.

folding the wheel under the car and thru the passager floor also bending the chassis.
