Front bumper,front panel, one headlight, bonnet. And the airbags have gone off on the dash and steering wheel. Wondered if anyone knows of any place who knows anything about these cars ? As this car does not start.

I was gonna say sell it to me but.....your in London. Not sure what the salvage yards are like over there. Have you tried Ebay.

There is surprisingly quite a lot of parts ( body panels ) on eBay and much cheaper than I was expecting.
I just wondered if there was any specialist, who I can get the electric work sorted out at the same time. If I hear of any damaged ones coming up I will let you know for sure.

I know there are a few members on here that have significant knowledge. Have you read any of the threads by wk057? Also rich rebuilds YouTube channel. Theres also a salvaged model s support group on here.

There are a lot of used parts from RHD Teslas on ebay from vendors in Lithuania. On UK forums, it is thought that these parts will likely be from cars stolen in the UK (e.g. using the relay exploit), parted out and shipped abroad. Some people feel that buying from them encourages the thefts.
Before you start... If the car has been written off (US: declared as salvage), Tesla will block supercharger access, won't honour any warranty, won't service it and won't sell you any parts.
