Have a look at this 211!!!
http://www.bluecycle.com/car-salvage-auctions/15068391
Last picture 12/12 shows some chassis damage, bloody great big hole in the main chassis rail (and its also bent the main chassis rail)
Wonder whick UK Lotus specialist will buy that and sell it to Europe!!!
That’s one strange impact ! Fence post maybe ?
Possibly, but I bet the driver needed clean underwear afterwards!!!
Just wish I could
A) Afford to buy it
B) Afford to repair it
C) Have the time and the skill to do it
Scary damage though…
The only way to mend that would be a new chassis…
I have a spare side panel if anyone feels brave

Chassis is �6150 + vat
Plus panels etc so about �10000 ish to repair
It would still be a cat D so not worth repairing really!!!
Bet it will be bodged and sold to Europe or beyond
I watched the auction online, and it closed out at �10,950
So unless someone has the spare ‘bits’ sitting around, then based on the above it sounds as though it’ll be a tough ask to turn a profit from it…
be interesting to see what price its listed for then… its on pistonheads already!!!

It was partially listed on the salvage site as KT57 ***
Maybe these guys have bought it.
So will be fixed and up for sale again at �11k
