From photos, I deduced that panels and headlight could be repaired and not replaced.£880 bid on a Saturday morning compared to the newer shaped but same year i10 (in the background) that went to £1260 – it had higher mileage and was Category S !Wing edge was pried out with a block of wood and hammer.It isn’t perfect although the only part bought was a bumper bracket which is far cheaper than wing, bumper and headlight replacement. A polyurethane bead bridged the void between wing and bumper as tabs had snapped off in the impact.
All done except that windscreen washer bottle – that I forgot to repair !
