    A shame to see it like this. Hope you can get it fixed quickly and at reasonable costs.

    Did you have to pay recovery and/or damage to the track?

        I had to pay some storage fees when I picked the car up. B*****ds drained my fuel tank which was annoying.

        Engine still runs fine but think there is some damagr to the inner wing etc.

                  That sucks.

                  At least it looks fixable, are you planning on straightening the inner wing yourself?

                    Hopefully it will be okay to fix.
                    Going to take my time over it.

                    Will look at straightening the inner wing myself depending on how bad it is. Doubt the are easy to get hold of these days.

                        Glad you got the car back. Damage doesn't look too bad if you have weld & don't need a 100% perfect finish

                          My 3B project - The repairs begin.

                          Dont weld but know someone who can and will get them to teach me or pay him to do it.

                          Guess the inner wing had to be cut out to be replaced? Hoping I can straighten it though.

                            I'd have thought it will be easier to drill out the spot welds & replace it to be honest.

                              They are not just spot welded on. They are part of the chassis leg too.

                              I have an Aby coupe I am cutting up at the minute if you want to purchase the complete inner wing I can cut it out for you.

                                Ill let you know as soon as I get a chance to take the S2 apart, may need other parts from that area too if things like brackets and clips are damaged.
