Damaged front of van

[Munroast]

Hit a bollard. My mechanic has looked at it. Said if I went through insurance it would be a right off.

Peugeot dealer showed me these parts

Be cheaper to buy another van

can I just leave all of it except Slam thing? I mean it's driving around ok (I've purchased that already) or just get the subrframe too.



We don't know if the crash bar needs replacing though, do we? I Found this subframe-

if it is driving around OK and it can get through its MOT - then I would leave as is

It's not just the bodywork damage.

Coolant level issues before this prang. Noticed it's empty after this, but not sure if it was full before. Water leaks in. Locks. And now this.

Time to look for another van is the best advice I can give.

Is there a picture with that subframe? There are several parts that could be called subframes. Could be the main subframe that parts of the suspension and steering are all bolted to under the engine and box - not what you need.

My much older Scudo in link below has a main subframe and what is termed a 'crossrail' that sits under the rad. Guessing it may be the crossrail you need, or something similar - not main subframe.

Yeah my mechanic said radiator bar or something. I'm really not sure. Maybe pop back and see him with pictures of what I'm thinking of buying to confirm it's right?

Ok.

But beware of throwing good money away.

There is always a point where it's better to get rid and start again. I think you're there
