dont mean this in a rude way, sure you got other things to sort first, but if you are going to break it i would be interested in some parts.

i dont know wot im going to do with it yet was thinking about putting it on ebay with a reserve as the engine is still running great jus the roof and door battered so hopefully someone out there will give me a good enough offer and strip it all out
either that or im gonna strip it out myself and post the stuff on the for sale section

Really sorry to hear about the car :( but it's only a bit of metal which can be replaced.

Lucky you only got away with minor injuries by the sounds of it.

onto bigger and better :wink:

Did the airbags go off?

Btw mate if its still there would it be ok to buy the dash and bits off it? I could pop down in the week and take the bits off myself?

Would be nice to see the car go to some use and get some money out of it, also would be convienent for me because I could pop down over a couple of days without rushing to get it out lol!

Reply back,

Daz

P.S Congratz on the news, at least you've got something nice on the way!

Was it third party then mate? Bad thing with me is that its not justifable to go on fully comp for me as if I crashed and didn't hit anyone, a claim against my name would be more costly than stripping mine down and buying another! Lol.
