Last night I was out in the old Pajero (the NA)

my brother called my and asked where do I keep my car registration & insurance !! ??

what happened? I asked him,
he said: well, the car sort of drove into 2 cars and somebody`s garden-wall sort of thing... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

in summary its quite bad, but still I am not sure if the damage is more that what can be seen,
I know that the radiation was pushed into the fan and it was leaking, head lights, grill, radiator support all were effected,
did not see any ATF on the ground, so hopefully the trans cooler is intact even though it took a direct hit


anyways just wanted to share last night`s drama & post some pics of it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

The bid question is, should I fix it or move on?

this is the the garden column-wall thing that stopped the car. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Body Damage is Cool
I'd lay money on driver failure - that wasn't a mere 10 mph collision.

You'll need to know the full extent of the damage before you make a decision about whether to repair it or not.

Oh, sorry though I mentioned how it happened,

Car was driven by my mum, this being an auto, she stepped on the gas instead of break,

That's how simple and sad it is
