had a wee accident just last week with the nx. met with a traffic island at about 80km/h sideways. road was wet, abs failed, wheels locked up and slid sideways then bounced. smashed the rim, screwed the tyre, bent some suspension and buckled the front right quarter. being in darwin, aus. parts can only be found interstate or from nissan, and their prices are kinda hefty to say the least. the rim will need replacing too, being 17in aint gonna be cheap either. have been offered 1500 for the engine, gb, front brakes and the front suspension. still leaves me with the rest of the car though. is it worth wrecking it in a town that there is none in the wreckers? or should i fix it and sell it?

if you were to fix it, i would say you might as well keep it... but thats just me!

well im sorta over it anyway, hence the thoughts of getting rid of it. i plan to sell it if i fix it. so it comes down to spending then selling, or wrecking and selling? its not exactly in tiptop shape hence why im honestly thinking of wrecking it
