I am gutted. I didn't go mad, I just took it in my stride. After a quite browse, I can't believe how much the replacement parts are going to cost for a 5 mph prang.

I've taped it all up for now so at least I can still drive it.

Insurance???? Nahhhhhhhhhhhhh.

That's bad mate  :(
This may cheer you up a tad. Years back i had a Calibra & my girlfriend at the time had not long past her test when she backed into the wall near my garage, she cried & said sorry, but then after a few days she said it was my fault for driving the car in the garage wrong   :-? :-? :o :o
Yep, that's what i thought too  ::) ::) ;D ;D
