I hope they are paying you for the shell when they take it away, don't forget its probably worth £150 or more (depending on current scrap prices of course). Unless of course you're claiming for the car on your insurance in which case it's theirs.

I ken that. A mate bought a 340 from the safety aspect. His other half's dad is a fireman and wouldn't be having any of it if said mate came back home with a Metro for wifey to drive. Trouble was she thought it was "a bit big" and "it's grey".

...but they are great for raggin' around in though

Young drivers will only get abuse from me, only because I've not written anything off when I was their age (nor yet, touch wood) and don't understand. Yeah, I've bumped them. Yeah I've driven like half a cock (well not a complete cock). The only car I've had written off was as a result of a theft where the muppet who twoc'd it stuck it in a sign coming off a roundabout

Anyway, as you were. ROLL-UP, ROLL-UP come and get them leftovers.

Nasty!!
How much for the rear seats and seat belts?

Hi Valman.
Glad you got out of that one still alive.
I am with alanovich there on seat belts.
I had a bad crash back in 1985 and the seat belt saved my life.
A bloody great invention
Cheers Mark.

Is the prop any use? (or I'm guessing it might be bust at the front from the shunt)

Looks like a dramatic one.

yeah its straight! just struggling to get it off atm, but once the gearbox is out it will come off no problem

Proper job!

Glad you're OK mate and have came out of this older (albeit only very slightly!) and a lot wiser (I hope!).
