The Twingo has been fixed! I’m glad this means the end to all the paperwork etc. It has  taken almost a month since the accident!

Driving the loaner Citroën C1 made me realise how much better the Twingo is as a drivers car. The C1 had absolutely no clutch or shifter feel, and felt less confident in the corners. The interior was a nicer place to be though (apart from it being the base model, so lacking thinks like electric mirrors).

How much did the damage cost again? Something like 1.400, -? Anyways, looks as good as Dr. Canard’s fixed BRZ.

It was about €1500,- which surprised me for such a small damage. Yeah, it looks great, and it got rid of some small scratches in the proces :)

That’s some serious coin. I secretly hope someone crashes into the Golf Plus so we can get new rust free front fenders.

This is what 850 Euros worth of damage look like...

Y eah, bumpers tend to cost about € 800/900 to replace , so that makes sense. I always though bumpers were made in such a way that they would be cheap to replace in slow speed crashes...

The 1980s have been behind us for quite some time now...
