I had a good look today when the rain stopped, offside bumper bracket is OK, but it's pushed the rear valancein about 2 inches, the bumper centre is bent, dented and twisted, the bottom polished trim is bentand the offside side bracket is bent forwards. I dunno, you look after themas if they were a child and someone else buggers them up for you. This is the second time It's been whacked by a woman thinking of something else ! Depressed ? Me? - - - - - -

Sounds close to a write-off if you ask me.

Sorry this has happened to you Martin. I was in a traffic jam a couple of weeks ago and the bloke behind drove straight into me. Out the car and he immediately said "sorry on a phone call!"

I know mate, but the old girl came to me unrestored and undamaged.
Sorry to hear your pride and joy has been damaged. At least you were present and able to get her details.
How often do you come back to your daily driver car and find that some un-caring soul has opened their door straight into your car door and left a nice dent or mark:X:X:X

Hiya mate, that's a very kind offer, but her insurance is dealing, and I'm screwing as many new bits out of them as I can ! Cheers, Martin.
