Been a while since i put an update in here. Unfortunately its bad news. last thursday i was hit in a carpark by a truck. waiting to get quotes and hear from the other drivers insurance company etc. etc. luckily the damage is all cosmetic, radiator and fan etc. were not touched so i'm pretty confident it wont be written off... watch this space... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

badluck man, at least it wasnt worse. good luck with the insurance and hopefuly it wont be written off

jeez the guy did enough damage! good luck with getting it repaired.

what a cunt

even if it is written of, buy it back be easy to fix up

sucks to see that man, i followed the build of this thing is ur left indicator constantly on, or is it just the lighting

Geez man he gave that a bit of a touch didnt he???? Hope all goes well with getting her fixed up man, shes a sweet car

thanks for the comments guys, glad i'm not the only person who appreciates this car ok so the story goes like this. good news: A total stranger who witnessed the accident has written a statement that supports my version of events, and puts the other driver at fault. (Because he is not involved his statement is far more valuable than anything i or the other driver have to say). bad news: The other driver is claiming i was at fault, unfortunately at the time of the accident my car was not insured (there's a stupid mistake i will never make again), this means I now have to communicate directly with the other drivers insurance company and argue liability. (needless to say they are being less than helpful, and i have my lawyer all over it). thats about all i know for now, still a decent chance they'll write it off, and i've got a feeling this will get worse before it gets better. will keep u informed.

Awwww man i been looking at this thing for ages, that sucks hard. Best of luck man, did a great job considering u did most yourself.
