here are the pics, i had a look and the chassis rail is pushed in at the front about 3 inches, so it will be a write off IMO.

Yeah it is similar but i still think mines worse and I dont know if it is worth fixing it coz it was only my workhorse and i still have the DF LTD to drive until i get another car. I will most likely be selling off parts from it but im gonna wait till insurance do their bit. But i know people are gonna be interested in parts from it especially the T5 and ED 323 LSD cop diff with 100k only. I will keep u guys posted. Cheers guys and thankyou for all your support. Its most apreciated
Mark

89 s-pak, yes that looks like similar damage but no its not as bad.marks chassis rail is pushed back and bent roughly 3 inches, its hard to tell from the photo but u can compare it to the other side.

that ball joint looks like the rubber was old and split which means no grease ,one reason to always make sure your car is serviced,hope you get another car on the road soon,
very lucky you were not doing 100 plus Kmh when it happened.
