Hi,

After being involved in an accident last week where I was rear ended, it is likely my car will be written off and so I may end up breaking it for bits as a result.

It's a 4 door M40 engined 318i automatic in Brilliantrot Red, with comfort interior.

It has some tasty bits on it including scorpion DTM upswept exhaust, front and rear strut braces, original pullout tape player, Nardi Blackline steering wheel with original BMW Boss kit, Fogs, HIDs, MiM alloys, H&R 40mm lowering springs and a few other bits and peices.

I'm gauging interest at the moment, and the response in this thread will determine whether it's fragged for bits or kept stored and repaired slowly over time.

Damaged parts are:
Rear bumper, Bootlid mechanism, Rear Valance, Slight dent in the pax side quater panel.

Here's what it looked like before the accident.

You need to post some concrete prices up to keep this thread, such as how much you want for the wheels, engine and the urine-filled lights.

I'm interested in the strut braces, a door lock actuator, HIDs, rear windscreen (if the demister is OK).

Beautiful car, sorry.

Grrrmachine can I please get this moved to the general chat section, not sure on the status yet so it's better suited to be posted there at the moment. Thanks

I've moved it, but you'll still need to put some prices up as that's what will determine whether people are interested or not.

Basically, as soon as it looks like you're selling bits, you need to meet the rules or this thread will get binned.
