Thank you for the offer :),will wait to see what the insurance robbers say,but me thinks i will be repairing myself as the age etc of it they will more than likely write it off,so i will then just refuse the claim and repair it.

Glad you're OK, but the American Serviceman bit made me blanch a bit, what's the bet he'll have severe whiplash & retrograde amnesia come the morning? ::) ;)

got this grill on Amazon last summer good quality http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/offer-listing/B002RRU5EA/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new price seems to have doubled I only paid £15. Sold my old Vaux one for more.  Ignore the 'out of stock' they order it when you do, was delivered in 2 weeks.

What state are the slam panels in - that may be more than just replacing a few bits
