It's a write off and the chassis looks like it's a gonner. The engine was RR converted at 40k miles and I am told that the car now has 50k miles on it so it should be still quite healthy. It had a new diff at the time and had Nitrons on it when I had it..I hope the driver is OK, anyone know what happened?

Can someone ask them how much they want for the "police aware" sticker. I like the look of it.

S1mma,
here´s how you get one for free:

-get 5 litres vegetable oil
-pour that over your favourite back road bend
-approach bend in reasonable high speed and floor it when over the oil

Next day you should have your own...

To do the knocking may well be a good thing, however to discover the damage after the knocking has already done out is most definately a bad thing. Very very bad!

On the plus side, it looks to have taken a fair knock reasonably well - im not sure how much the drivers door has intruded, but from the looks of things - it wouldnt have been too much.

Just a shame theres one less on the road. frown
