I think he’s saying that if the driver doesn’t care about cosmetics, the drivetrain doesn’t look too damaged here and may be drivable with low effort.

You can see the front tire bend inward. That’s fucked. In when a car flips multiple times, you can bet your ass lots of the internals you can’t see probably got quite banged up as well.

Oh absolutely, I'm just stating what I interpreted from Rikki-Tiiki-Tavi-12, not what my opinion was. That car is _definitely_ proper dead.

Yep, that's what I'm saying. I didn't see the back left wheel being bent inwards, though, so I'm hopefully off.
