Morning All,

Having just got my Tuscan back on the road following a rear end bump from a cabbie...I was really enjoying driving again after 6 weeks in a replacement car..a rather odd looking Vhauxall Signum.

Then, on Sunday afternoon, a Toyota reverses into me..in a one way street!!! whilst I was banging on the horn and waving out of the window!

His exhaust has cracked the front bonnet. Has anyone had one of these replaced or has any idea of cost, as right now I am not sure if he has any insurance!!!

Cheers
Steve

Sorry to hear you news, I know what you go through in these situations as has the same happen to me 18 months ago.The price of a new front bonnet at TVR Gear www.tvrgear.com/ is £611.00 which would be un-painted.Unless it's really badily damaged I am sure a good body shop could sort it out.
