Amen to that- it's stuff like this that makes you realise what's really important I guess...that looks to have been quite an impact, lucky it was a hedge and not a tree! Bet it scared the cr@p out of you both...glad you ok buddy- hope you manage to come to an amicable agreement with the insurers
oh no
i'm sure gutted cant quite describe it, glad you are both ok though
regarding the insurance, you are probably right about not getting the full worth of the car back from aplan but do they have the clause where you can buy the car back cheap? i'm sure there would be many salvagable parts that you could make up your losses with

I'm devastated for you mate, I know how much time, effort, money and research you put into this car. Not to mention the heartache you went through for the TRD kit. I had the honour of watching this build first hand all the way through to it's completion. Totally stunning deuce.

I'm just pleased you walked away from it.
Cheers Phil - all good things come to an end, though - so time to regroup and move on!
