Whadda you think? Damage looks pretty bad to the driver's side in my opinion! Trying to be passed off as a nice easy salvage repairable.... Anyone else dubious about it? :(

cill looks more than slightly dammaged too

The shut lines round the doors still look pretty good.

A new door skin isn't that unbelievable

Hmm, from the rear 3/4 view the damage doesn't look as bad as the other photos. I'm not sure about the sill damage either though....

I would be very dubious about this - the damage looks much more severe than just 'light'.

The damage to the sill does not look to serious to me, its only the outer skin that has been damaged, the inner sill (which is the structural part) should be fine!

I reckon someone is gonna end up with a bit of a bargain here.

Reminds me of my old Fiesta when some ar5e in a 40ft artic decided to drive into my passenger door, it looked totally bannana'd and written off but only needed a new door. To me it looks like a bargain if you could get it less than 1500. Shutlines are still perfect (better than a new Peugeot !!)..a new outer door skin (or less dammaged door from a scrapers) some panel tickling to the rear door and a new outer sill panel + paint

Had similar sort of damage on my old proton personna, was rear door though (and slightly on the wheel arch) cost about

When my pug 106 had the door smashed in I thought it would need a whole new door, but it only needed the skin.

Look no worse than the fabia. With a little bit of money spent that will make a good buy!

i think it will cost a wee bit to fix unless you have a contact in a bodyshop tho :(

if its that easy and cheap to repair why wouldnt he fix it himself?

because body shops rip you off?

My Rover had

they chap says it would cost very little to repair, if it was fixed for the price he says he would make much more selling a fixed car
