How are you getting on with sorting the car out mate?

Corin,
Still negotiating with the insurance company, looking like I may have an answer middle of next week. Quote for repair £5500 approx...car insured for £5000!
So I may have to throw a monkey at the car to put it right....or walk away.

Kneejerk reaction is?

How are you getting to Le Mans next year mate, not carwise but do you fancy coming down with us layabouts?

The AC 3000ME was my childhood dream mate, most people wanted a Countach etc but for me the AC was the car to have, still have a nose every now and again, there's been a couple of turbos in the PH classifieds lately.

Top choice my son, if you do decide to make the break I would be interested in buying your M back from the insurance company mate, that interior would look luverly in my car!

Just to let you know chaps I'm taking the car down for repair on Monday.....Had a look around for something new but couldn't make the break from the old girl.
AV has assured me she'll come come back looking sweet!
I'm still worried though!
Cheers lads.

Good stuff, Glynn.

It would have been a sad day if it wasn't repaired.

Will it be back in time for the snow?

Being done as we speak!

(Well probably not, right now)

Also hoping for by Christmas, seems to be taking as long as building a new one

Hope the sprogs are ok.

Drove back from Coventry Saturday....didn't get chance today' out buying a new bed for the boy! Car is driving sweet though and really chuffed with paint and repairs.
Going to give her a real good clean later in the week cos she's a little dusty....

Looks like I'll be getting mine back within the next week or so as Adrian should have put most of it back together last week after being re-sprayed. Adrian was waiting for the wheels to come back after being refurb'd. Just need to arrange a time with Adrian.

If anyone is in Adrian's this week, can you take a pic and email me.

Thanks,

Ian

Ian,
The car looks lovely (paint match is superb and inner wings are gleeming), Adrian was fitting her up along side mine last week, got pulled off to sort my MOT out so shouldn't be much longer I think.
I stood and looked at your rear lights for a while and just could not get used to them!
It's nice to be different though....
Supes.
