Carl is correct - the thread regarding his accident has long since been deleted but here's an extract:

see pics HERE

Would like to think some forum members would be able to salvage it for parts but I have no idea what insurance company will do with it.

I am currently in talks with greenlight insurance (highway) who have made me an offer of just £4400! (could have done with original forum database to search for LE price examples to proove market value of LE's). Once I have sorted a fair pay out I will need to decide if i should get another coupe!

I Have about 8 months left on my insurance before premium would rise to crazy prices.

Its nice to get back online after such a long time.

Im off to check out the sales section just in case <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

cheers
