That must have hurt! Atleast the breakers yard is being honest about it being for spares rather than the usually boloney about it being a slight dent & easily repairable!

Hard to see what is worth £6.2K....
Not much left at all.
Hope the driver and passenger got out OK, that steering wheel has had an impact.

Some useful parts if you need them - hood screen, (the best) dash, interior gearbox, axle, raer over-riders and luggage rack. Possibly the engine although it may be damaged. The original steering wheel has deformed well by the look of that, so has probably prevented a more serious injury. The deformation of the front end has moved the column, but no intrusion into the cockpit by the look of it.

Did you see the creases to the gearbox cover around the handbrake and the vertical panel on the passengers side (where they always seem to go)? Still lots of good parts there but unless changed you would be buying a couple of boxes full of 10 year old parts so with labour the value of stripping it for parts is close? Such a shame to see a car in this state, I guess if you had a base compatible car and the space it could provide a host of parts and trim in particular....trim parts often move in a big thump metal parts are always suspect for stress fractures.

Looking at the age and mileage, and no doubt being controversial here, did the driver know what they were doing? Thats one years average Morgan mileage in the best part of ten years, plenty do a lot more.
