Unfortunately. Written off. And if you look you'll see my new (2nd hand) AC Schnitzer wheels. I put them on Wednesday evening. This happened Thursday morning.

Waiting to turn right into a petrol garage - stationary. Van hit me at 50-60mph and pushes me 40 odd foot, not into incoming traffic thank God.

Looking at the damage to yours it looks little compared to his bag of...but you say it's written off sorry.

The bumper hides the damage mate, it's a goot foot shorter than it was behind that. All totally crushed and slammed towards the floor.

 

Tuff old girl though, she still got me home.

As long as his insurance company are fair. And definitely no 316 engine this time. Far too underpowered. At least a 320 this time around.

Selling them I reckon Dal, unless I get another Beemer with the payout.

Still got the 30 mate, passed it's MOT without a fault.

They've just called to confirm that the car is written off. Now I have to wait for them to call and offer me some money. It was only on 60,000 miles, so I want enough money to buy another car with the same mileage.
