Hi Luke it's Matt just got back home now what a long day it has been

Just to let peeps know i was the person who travelled to buy the car.

No words can discribe how gutted both of us were when it happened it just seem'd to be over in a flash and we were all speechless.

I'm so so gutted for Luke as the car was a credit to all his hard work and many many ŁŁŁŁŁ spent.

myself and my mate are ok just didn't know what to say or how to help.

I do appologise for leaving so quickly but the drive home was not 1 as was looking forward too.

But all was not wasted as i purchased a K plate Smokestone Blue 4x4 Saph in superb condition, so i had the joy of driving a cossie once again

I do hope it all works out for you Luke and that u get something back from the car!

on the off chance that if u strip it was wondering if i could have first refusal on some of the items

Gutted for you both a lot of hard work put in that car by Luke

Maybe it wasn't ment to go to another home Luke

How gutted would you feel Silky if you'd handed the money over & that had happened on the way home at the end of the day, glad to see both peeps are ok. Like i always say, car is only a piece of metal & can be replaced, the main thing is you 2 are ok

it needs to be sorted mate. its not as bad as it looks i wauld think that its the wheel being hit thats damaged the shell . a day on a jig wauld sort it out for you and then you wauld only need to repair the r quauters so get it sorted and if you do decide to break it its got a masive spec list and ther wauld be a big cue of people wanting parts
