Bummer

Glad you're OK and at least I guess you'll enjoy the rebuild.

Ouch! Looks nasty. At least you came away from it OK, and hope your 'mate' gets his come-uppance.

It always suprises me how strong these cars are!

remember to buy back the salvage, lots of bits there can be reused or sold on by the looks of it.

i hope you get to buy it back as it will help loads with the rebuild, ie. finding donor bits etc.

i bit sick i know but i like looking at smashed 7's just so you can get an idea of how they respond to an accident.

looks like yours took the brunt of the force leaving you unharmed, i hope.

It isn't completley totaled. You could re-use loads of parts from that. At least it's not a total loss.

Didn't you say the Insurance wouldn't pay - so the car is still yours for rebuilding surely? Don't tell me it's been formally written off.

BTW, dipped beam is a bit high for the MOT.
I run neg camber but that's taking the p***.

Any chance you could strap your 'mate' back in and torch it 'for insurance purposes'???

I'm sure that there were things that you wanted to change, well the rebuild will allow you to get it perfect.

Good Luck

Kit cars are solid. What you need is the thing you crash into to have a crumple zone. Dont hit a wall or a big tree. Or a big fat person.
