I got my esprit back from the painters about 3 weeks ago, and it looks super!!!! well pleased. Then I had some shorter springs made for it, and to say its low now is a understatment!! Ill get some pics shortly.
Anyway took it out last week lost it on a round about and damaged front and rear bumpers! Gutted!

Just thought id share my misfortune with you all, and my lack of driving skill.

Hi,

Sorry to hear of your misfortune, glad it wasn't worse. Do you think altering the chassis balance with your custom springs played any role in it?

Hope you get it sorted out in good order. Happy Motoring!...Jim'85TE

Ouch sorry to hear about that, hopefully its a small touch up on the paint and not new bumpers.

I got to say when I got got my car repainted last year, I was so nervous taking it anywhere for the fear that some numpty would ram my rear. So far not a scratch to be had. Hope you get her sorted soon.

I havnt had a chance to propley test out how it handles yet. Well I did and it span! but ill try in the dry next time.

It was coming off the carpenters arms round about going towards the A127

The damage isnt bad, but the cars had so many paint jobs the paint is realy thick! So it will need some filler in it to build it up a little, thank god I work in a bodyshop.
