To be fair it looks an easy repair and with the used car prices as they are insurance companies are repairing more vehicles which would of been totalled, Coupled with the fact insurance companies are repairing with secondhand parts (yes go read the small print on your policy)..
Unlucky Darren 😢 But, I do love having a go at these in my Focus ST. Collins CP340 keeps me close enough to really piss the M135 and M140 owners off! 😂 The sound of that straight 6 engine is one of the best on the road, I love a 5 Cyl but M engines just scream at high RPM's
Id imagine, if anything, this will be a CAT-N (Non Structural), depending on the repair estimate. After today perhaps there is more damage than we initially thought - following an inspection by a local Bodyshop! Thanks for the kind words
Think it was a Type-S but not sure. Indeed it looked like a door wedge 💯 Thankfully ok, a little sore and my boy was a bit shook up but nothing that won’t ease over time.
Ahh that sucks man, what a real shame, really nice BMW is that too, that's a pure pisser is that. My daughter was returning to Glasgow from Blackpool last September and all three lanes of the M6 were at a standstill, she was sitting in lane 3 and a fella came along without paying attention, he never even braked, her focus st was only 11 months old and a total write-off, she was trapped but her 2 pals were able to get out, fire brigade had to cut the roof off and they all went to Preston hospital, was also a nightmare getting all the girls belongings back as the recovery said for weeks they didn't have them, but did. That crash totally wasted their nice weekend but luckily nobody was badly injured, firemen actually said it was all the girls luggage in the boot that potentially saved them, it took all the impact energy.
Thank you, really appreciate the comment. It’s only metal and we are both ok; that’s all that really matters. And of course; the other driver was ok - even after a stern word from me! Thanks for taking the time to comment and really appreciate the sentiment 💙💙💙
What a nightmare 😖, would have been a good car to see getting upgrades😕! I did some work on a m4 de-cats, akrapovic exhaust ,uprated rad. Charge cooler and intake then remapped That car was a weapon! Helps when customers have deep pockets 😂, Glad you and the wee man are ok though 👍🏼, hope you get something sorted soon 🙏🏼
Bit disappointed- we bought a straight car, not a bent one. Depends on the repair costs and having an Engineers report as to which route this takes. Thanks for the support buddy 🙌
Rather not be seeing more content like this if I'm honest, but should it happen, I'm all for watching if you do any repair work! Glad you and the lil guy are ok! Very not fun to be shunted and can imagine esp not so for a kid.
I don't understand drivers who tailgate, they don't get their destination any quicker and have reduced vision if they want to overtake. Sorry about you're missed trip away and You're poor car !

This one shifted, for sure, from what I felt on the 130 miles on the way home!
Just gutted we didn’t get to mod here some more.
Glad you and G are OK. Was good to spend time with you all!
Thanks buddy; was great to see you guys again 💯
Cat C... buy it back and spend the cash on the project
Glad you are all OK though that is what counts

I drove past just after it happened, the Type r was looking a lot worse for wear. Glad to see your alright though after it

Glad to hear everyone was ok. It’s surely ruined our weekend but we were all in one piece and that’s what matters!
Thanks for the support 🙏
Very sorry to see what happened. Hope you all well hope it all goes well.
Thank you 🙏
We are all in one piece so, in essence, that’s all that matters!
Really appreciate all the concern guys 💙
Heartbreaking, I've seen you on Ricky llfs channel previously, proper sound guy with some super slick focuses!

That’s the main thing; that the boy was all ok. The rest will work itself out in the wash!
Thanks for the continued support 💙
Picked a belter project there Darren ! Walk in the park for you guys getting this back in action surely?

We will do an update video; this may be worse than we thought after having some body shops look at the car 🤦♂️
Thanks for the support and wishes 💙
please get a ford maybe mustang, would love to see BD treatment to the V8 job.
We may just change direction after this disaster. Thanks for the support
Who said about tailgating
Nobody was tailgating: the driver assumed we wouldn’t stop and wasn’t paying attention! They sped up into us.
Snap had my last car for exactly 24hours before someone hit me 👎 hope everyone is ok
You need Mat Armstrong to rescue that, he loves a motor with a bit of damage 😂
You’re right 🙌
@@BDPerformanceWrexham Still a nice car though, and loads of power... 🚀
@@JonWhiteST250 we were looking forward to sending it to the moon 🌙
Sorry about this, but at least no one was hurt and you all walked away from it.
Lee can buff it out good as new
Think this is beyond even Lee’s amazing talents!
May be anther Track day car or 1/4 mile missile!! Civic drivers ah😢
WHERE THERES A BLAME THERES A CLAIM👍
Probably hit you because your brake lights didn't work like the indicators on all the BMW 's 🤭🤭
Thankfully they work
Indicators are option on Bmw
Gutted 😢
Thankfully nobody seriously injured; just the young lads pride at a guess!
I don't understand drivers who tailgate, they don't get their destination any quicker and have reduced vision if they want to overtake. Sorry about you're missed trip away and You're poor car !
He wasn’t tailgating, he assumed that we would run the orange/red light - which we didn’t
@@BDPerformanceWrexham Fair play. Just had Revo stage 2 put on my ST mk2 by Devil. I also installed Airtech intercooler,decat and deress. It’s epic 😁
Oh god Darren really annoying disaster especially a new car and having yr kids in back 🙄
I see you crash this on the slip road
We didn’t crash; we were crashed into at the 🚦 waiting at the red light.
Oh I didn't see the other car then I only seen your car
The car was shunted in the rear by a young man in a Civic; who kindly redesigned the rear end instead of stopping for a red light 🤦♂️
