Taxi driver not paying attention, this is the result:









Bugger.

A great shame as the car is driving perfectly and is just about 'run in':

Is it going to be written off for that?
Sadly, yes.

We are arranging to buy the car from the insurance company and repair it as it has great sentimental value.

Very sad to see this. If I can be of any help sourcing parts let me know. My good friend and mechanic has dismantled quite a few of these SZ cars.
Thank you, much appreciated.

Sorry to see this...looks lovely other than the damage.

Hope you have it as good as new (or 176,000 miles) very soon.

Thanks Andy smile

A body shop near Droitwich has been recommended to us and I hope the car will be back to it's former glory soon.

Bentley is going to London later today so a few more 100 miles to be added.

Might reach 200,000 miles this year.

200,000 miles is an impressive milestone to reach. Have you been responsible for all of this mileage or was the car previously owned?
We are the second owners and the car had 18,000 miles on it when we took delivery.
