Seeing your old TIV in a showroom.

As per title really, 99% sure this is my old T350, sold her privately with a heavy heart in December 2015 and missed ever since.

If the new owner is reading this please get in touch to say you're okay, I lost your contact details so can't do it any other way.

Part of me wants to get my wallet out as she really was a lovely car (few niggles but that's the fun) although I've learned the hard way to never go back to your ex's!

Anyone else come across their previous car in this way? Quite a depressing feeling.

Edit: 100% sure now

I know this car is in the wrong area, but I share your pain. I spent many hours over 3 1/2 yrs on my last Chimaera and I saw bits from it appear at a salvage place back in December. Definitely mine because the last 3 digits of the VIN were written on the back of the dashboard. That, and the mirrors were black because I sprayed them myself. Now the running gear has been listed this week, I've seen what happened to it :

Is that a bit like seeing your kid being baby sat by the McCanns..?

I remember seeing my first car turn up in a scrappy by me 6 months after I wrote it off..

2K to repair that before paint??? Dream on.

OP - not a nice feeling I guess but at least it wasn't in your possession when it happened.

Looks OK in the first picture, I was wondering what all the fuss was about. Scroll forward a few photos
