thanks for all the comments guys. Hopefully the engine is OK!

I've got a pressure test taken about a month before the accident, so I guess i should take this along to the insurers ?

The main question I wanted to ask was, if the leg on the chassis has been bent, and it does need putting on a jig,
do you guys feel that a jigged car will ever be the same?
I know I rolled a renault 5 aged 15 and had it jigged and if it took off slightly after going over a bridge or something
when it landed the directionality was extremely bad.
was this a question of bad jigging?
Thanks

As long as you go to a good bodyshop that know what they are doing the car should be fine. It is amazing at what some of them can do to car's that you would think would never drive straight again.

If it comes to it I know where there is the front chassis legs from an RS4 available (I believe they are the same as S4).
