Looks like overall you guys had a GREAT road trip. Sorry the weather wasn't kinder to you and so very sorry that I didn't catch up with you. Anyone that was on the trip and would like a road trip car sticker,pm me with your address and I will post them to you for free. Had the insurance assessor today,was a nice lad and took pictures and details. I expressly told him I was wanting to keep the car. So will have to see what the insurance company comes up with,watch this space.
Below a very sad video.

Man that's a sin. Damage does not look too bad to the untrained eye.

I was cringing looking at that video, sorry to see, hope it's not too bad to fix

Made me cringe to,

Reminded me of an incident outside my house when an idiot was doing skids and doughnuts and ended up spinning out and coming to rest with his wheel arch wedged on the only concrete post within 200m.

When they dragged him off it was ugly and equally so up the recovery wagon as the car was lowered. However he was in no position to argue as he was helping police at the time.........

Looks can be deceiving The insurance company has written her off,Bugger!! Obviously planning to keep her and rebuild, will see what the cost of that is going to be. Must admit I cannot fault Adrianflux they have been great as well as the underwriter Trinity lane. Though the proof of that, will be on how long before I get paid?

[nate78]

That's a surprise, from what I could see there didn't seem to be much damage, what was the damage report?

[BobN]

Similar thing happened to Chrislongwayup and it worked out better as he got to keep the damaged trike too.

Hi John

Hope you can get to keep her. We know you have the skills to rebuild her as we have seen your work on all of your kits.

Well this a short list of the things that I noted

1 Bodywork requires preparation and painting all of it,barb wire makes a mess.

2 Chassis requires powder coated

3 2 front wheel arches

4 Nearside wheel arch stay

5 Front nearside suspension bushes

6 Bottom ball joint

7 Tall fly screen

8 Nearside mirror

9 Alloy floor pan

10 Centre tunnel

11 Passenger seat

12 Alloy upright on rear spoiler

13 Rear exhaust cans

14 Decals

15 Repairs to drivers seat mount

16 3 damaged alloys

Probably not an exhaustive list but you get the general idea. I have already started the repairs.

Surely that's not enough to right it off?! It's horrible what's happened, but it's not major work as such I don't think. Hope the pay out covers the rebuild though mate. Good luck.
