Sorry to hear about this Martin, glad your ok! I have just the man to fix this for you though, cheap as chips and attention to detail is his speciality, he is located in North Wales. He did the plastic welding on mine, great job and I think he is doing some work on turbodogs car now as well! Give me a call if this is of interest but got to be better than going through the insurance company!

Oh noes. Glad to hear that it can be sorted though.

And I suppose you said "whoopsie, that wasn't such a clever thing to do". followed by a gentle "oh dear" ?

Yes the insurance company have decided to fix it for me which was helped by the £14.5k one on PH recently.

Looking forward to getting it to Andy for repair then back but I think it won't be ready until late this year.
