It was the first thing that went through my mind :-X ::)

As in another post somewhere, freezing rain is now forecast and, IMO, much more dangerous :o Be careful indeed :y

Has that gone though to the inner wing? Outer wing, bonet, bumper and light should be fairly east to source and swap over...? If a write off buy it back. Perhaps?

Too have taken the bonnet I would have thought that the inner wing must have sustained damage of some sort

Bugger.  OOF members seem to go through phases of writing off cars, lets hope this is the last of the current crop.


It doesn't help, but its only a tin can, not flesh and blood :y
