That was a good spot from you, really made me laugh at the time, speaking the lingo and knowing the company, I had never thought about it......

Poor poor Renault!

Joking apart, looks like it only needed bonnet, headlamp and bumper? Could it not be sorted mate?

 

[Shelly]

Whoops poor @hard top

When the insurance co found out that a new bonnet was 1100 on its own, that kind of like knocked it on the head.
Looked for 2nd hand parts over here, rare as rocking horse shyte.....

Shame.

That is the problem with these cars now, mine Oct 96, we pump money into them but on paper they are worth bugger all at the end of the day due to mass production and age.

Not so bad now as we can get an agreed value over here on our insurance.

And a few more bits, including what ever that bit is in front of the rad at the top where the bonnet locks into.
Will see if I can find a few photos.

Nope Minty .....

Poor poor Renault!

Proves one thing though, the Z's can take a thumping, that Renault, a lot younger than my car was also a write off......

Looks like you went into the back of him Mike, too little beer?
