my mini is rearended by dozy day dreaming bint in her fiat.

I am sure my shell is write off.

This is really upsetting as there is nothing like mini, for fun-ness per pound, awesome to drive.

Not looking good but it look can be repairable.

Mate I know how you feel. Mine got front ended whilst parked on the street. By some p*ssed up, joyriding, no licence holding piece of monkey nuts. The police didn't knock on my door and when I got up in the morning and went to get in her I saw her sprawled over the road. A complete right off. She was in a right state. All I can say is that it will get easier and you will move on. Have faith and be strong.....

I'm welling up again!!

Really sorry to hear about the crash.

Mines in at the repair centre now suffering from very similar rear end damage. I was quoted about a grand, but it's coming off the other cars insurance, yours should too.

Best of luck and I'll let you know how mine works out for a comparison.

Personally, unless the roof is kinked and the passenger door wont close and is not ajar I reckon thats repairable.

Front panel is something like £25 pattern, doesnt look like you will need wings and the rear quarters you can buy as a repair panel.

Its not all doom and gloom!

If the rest of the shell is clean then I'd certainly buy it back if WO, as long as the damage hasn't really bent it. Wouldn't be a terribly difficult or expensive repair to get that looking good as new.
