Door ripped off-help!

[markbarnes]

Hey guys,

A little old lady didn't wear her glasses driving, and my landy has her door off.

I've tried to upload the pics, and they are on this post, somewhere????

Any body know of a reasonable priced company that could put it back on around south west London?

Cheers amigos

Old lady? You can't fool us mate, its been raining there hasn't it?

 

[GrumpyGel]

That's why I left South London - these days even the little old ladies nick you car doors when you back is turned.

ups!!!

More pictures needed, especially of the hinges and structure. Normally a lower value car loosing a door in a collision would be a write off

[IndiTd4]

Sorry to here bout this mishap mate,
don't know really what to suggest,
Maybe the insurance is your best bet mate,
that's what you pay it for isn't it??

op2: This one could roll on for a while once the trater boys get hold of it..
:5blurk5: in fact it could be a very long time..

its like :5bnopity:

Good luck getting it sorted mate..

did you have your door open because it looks like it the front of the door is damaged ,and so will the pillar ,if you opened the door on her and I am not saying for one minuet you did if you were getting out of the car then sorry but it is your fault, if on the other hand you were outside of the car getting in, it is her fault ,no what I mean, nudge nudge, but the door pillar will want looking at as well. hope this helps

let it go through the insurance, thats why you pay for it

FLIPPIN HECK!!!!!! Lol:crazy: I must have been sitting with the old dear in cafe Nero when you took that . I think me and you wave at each other.....my other car is a big green ex army defender that often rows a chipper

The car has been written off as cat d, and I wanna buy her back for £221.00! So a cheap fix would help!

Weld it on and get in it "dukes of hazard" style?

 

[markbarnes]

Probably should have mentioned in my last post that indeed the picture that a very sharp defender11069 took was my car! Not too sure whether to congratulate him or direct him to a website called slutload where far more interesting pictures can be acquired for nowt

Here is the picture again that he took. Can any of you work out from the pic if that door could be straightened out?

That was some guys idea so that the door didn't fall onto passing traffic....

Surprised that no one on the forum has any knowledge of a good body shop who could fix this.....

It looks like the top hinge has been torn out of the door. Provided the A post isn't to damaged? It could be a reasonably easy repair/ door swap. Maybe Diy
