I am glad you all survived with "reasonably light" injuries.

Did you get the plate of the person who pulled out? Any witnesses?

Jeysus.

Is the chassis bent? Aside from the obvious damage to the shell, it doesn't look that bad to me. TVRs always look terrible when broken.

yikes Glad to hear you escaped relatively unscathed! That you're here to type is the important thing. How did it happen? Slipper road? Diesel?

Woah - what a mess!

The main thing as everyone has pointed out is that you guys are ok, and the dog of course...

Have you got any comeback on insurance for this?? Their insurance etc...?

Glad you're all ok and still here to tell the tale.

Still a testament to the strength of TVR's though considering they have no electrictrickery etc etc...

My mates wife was killed 3 days ago while driving a VW Polo her car was stationary and was hit head on by a BMW doing 60... Gutted.. cry

Gosh that was some spin! Glad you're OK. That's the main thing.

Shame about the car though.

Mrs Soft Top is most concerned about the dogs.
