with that sort of damage, would that be fixed or written off?

Tuan's is supposedly still at Topgears awaiting pickup and as the owner is a local chap, it might be another in that coliur but it was my first thoughts.

Hard to say, cars have been written off with less and repaired with more damage

There was a Murcie in that colour for sale at top555 recently , i believe that one belonged to Jodie Kidd

Yes the one at 555 was owned by Aidan Butler who is Miss Kidd's husband ;-)

I've seen Murci's with a damn site more damage than that get repaired at Lambo Wycombe.

The orange one (which had the purple lacquered vinyl graphics on it) that was smashed up/rolled on the Thailand leg of the Gumball last year is just nearing completion as of last week! (and that was properly messed up)

The white Murcie which was smashed up badly on the last Euro Gumball in Spain was repaired at a cost of over £100K IIRC

Yep correct, they were still mending it at Wycombe when the 06 Gumball started! - a big job!
