Coupe totalled with extensive damage to front...bonnet bent in half, rad and front all smashed in!!! I’m not angry just gutted. All that time and effort to keep her on the road....gone!!! I know i’ll only get pennies from the insurance but it’s not about it’s financial value!! Don’t know where to go now....totally gutted....perhaps another coupe or time for pastures new?? inky goodness!!

Yer no a million miles from Joe, perhaps you could make a start from there. Best of luck for the future. I'm an old git & happy with it,most of the time

The only good news- when your have got over the heartache of your coupe being taken from you- is that no-one was hurt. The only thing you can do is start looking for the next nubut mobile...the number of good coupes around is not vast...but can be found when you start digging. Keep smiling! Its the only way to move forward. And clearly its a no-fault Insurance claim. MM
