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.

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.  -------------

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. -------------
