yeh that sure is fuzions old car that he sold to his mate.

looks like its been stripped of some of the parts before pickles got there hands on it tho

[pansy]

Damn that sucks so much. Just because someone probably wasn't paying attention a beautiful car gets ruined.

What a shame. That was the best mk4 in the country! Full stop! Damage looks nasty.

[Umai Naa!!]

It's probably fixable, but insurance companies tend to write modified cars off more easily due to the difficulty and cost in sourcing replacement parts.

I remember the only reason they wrote my Commodore off was due to the colour, because of the cost of the paint to spray the replacement panels. If it was white, it wouldn't have gone over their 'budget'.

Anyways, shame about the Golf. Always been a fan of it. Hope someone on here grabs it, and fixes it.

oh my :/ this car was one of the ones that got me interested in vw's in the first place. The damage doesnt look that bad though? Hopefully it goes to a nice owner who brings it back to its former glory

The Story,

I sold the car to a good friend of mine Vince as some of you know to who i think loved the car IF not more then i did (actually no... definitely did haha).

Unfortunately he was driving home through Lane Cove where he had to stop quickly where someone behind him even though a very large distance behind him cleaned him up at apparently over 70km/h according to witness'.

So he had every intention of having it repaired and making sure it was 100%, the car was quoted and sat at the panel shop for a while trying to see if he could repair it however unfortunately what was offered was to little to have it repaired at all. $15k+ damage, with extensive under car damage/rear.

He was hit so hard he pushed into 2 cars and moved them forward over 50m+. Luckily he was ok was my main concern. Unfortunately the car took the brute of it and the car that hit him was a complete write of then and there at the scene!

Not much you can do! Had some awesome times and memories with the car and i loved it. But at the end of the day you have to remember its a car and to me my mate didnt get hurt and thats all i honestly cared about!

Car was not insured (from his part) when he purchased the car with all the mods that i had. So no the car was no 'stripped' like some may think!

He is now looking at purchasing something else in the near future.

Parts will be for sale from his MK4 (red and silver ones) and also from my from my old MK4. (minimal, by this i mean wheels). please do not req, or pm me for parts thanks

OMG ! one of the best MK4 gone
Glad to hear your friend is alright, that prove how safe a VW is.

what happen to the porsche brakes? looks like vince had not alot of mods when he had the car, shame to see the old girl go down the drain.

Sorry to see.

Wow. It doesn't even look like there's any damage to the front.
