What's the car worth? IIRC anything over 50% the car's value is a write off, assuming there's nothing that would make repairing it a dangerous vehicle.

In terms of cost to repair, get a quote from a garage.

How was that incurred; Did it involve the vehicle pivoting about the longditudinal axis?

It looks as though the pillar is actually bent? I imagine it would be worth having appraised as the rest of the car looks reasonably decent - Best not having something where the C pillar has the strength of a marshmellow though.

It’s a bit difficult for us to say really, what with the fact you’ve given us virtually nothing to go on.

Might be ok, but as said, more info needs on car/value.

Dad's A4 got swiped by a tractor, similar but worse damage and worth maybe £3k and they fixed it.
