Did I read correctly that the insurance company want 25% of the settlement?

Could you clarify for me?! Cheers.

that was one of the best coops on here.

Just to rub salt in the wound, when tearing down M23 I passed one the best looking coupes being driven very sensibly. It was this one. Dude I am so gutted for you!

damn shame, looks repairable, is the roof kinked near the rear quarters, if not should straighten out ok. the front cross member can be relaced, as can the slam panel, if the subframe bolts under the footwell are not creased out of position that is good. the forward sub frame bolt on the chassis leg would detemine really how bad it is, if this is bent backwards then the leg would need to be pulled straight, if the induction pipe was out of the way ans battery you can get an idea of how serious it really is.

and 20vt strut braces do not fit 16vt's.

You do have a few options buddy, so dont feel too disheartened..

If you buy it back and sell it off in bits you will have a nice little amount towards the next plus. There are always a few on sale on the forum.

Otherwise you can get it back on the road following the advise in this thread.

If you do decide to put it back on the road, then you can start to add uprated parts and make it even better

Wish you the best, coz she is worth it.

Theres a little dimple there, I would never have spotted it but thats what the bodyshop guys are for I suppose.
I've repaired a car before and have regretted it ever since so I'm not going to do it again.
Just going to have a good fight with the insurance company to get a decent settlement and keep my eyes peeled for Pluse's and LE's.

Thanks for the comments about how it was chaps because it was perfect when I got it and I know I won't get another one like it but I've still get the pictures and the memories I suppose.

Now in Coupes For Sale but only as the whole car.
