Good on ya' our kid!

Stu.

well, she's off to volvo to get a quote. something fundamentally wrong seeing a volvo on the back of a transporter, more so when it's mine! still, she's gotta be fixed.

right, update time. good news: she will ride again. the damage isn't too bad. the bad news: it'll take some time to get it done. my insurance company now want to verify volvo's assessment. how much longer is this gonna take?

I've had time to find your post & pics at last mm!

Looks like the new bumper did a job on the tyre - best to replace both fronts - you don't want more grip on one side than on the other.

Clearly the incident and her frivolous counter-claim are causing you stress & I suggest you check your cover to see whether it includes an uninsured loss recovery service.

Good luck mate.

oh dear. things ain't got any better. lost the hire car, and still no change in the claim. threatening legal action now against the third party's insurance. hopefully the new wing will come this friday so she'll be road legal soon. still, never mind. all the walking i'm doing means i'm getting fit!

Did the wing come?

Like the new avatar! Is it for the duration of England's participation only?

:banana:

found the avatar while cleaning up my laptop. i think i'll keep it. the new wing's here and fits so hopefully be painting it today. need a head light if anyone has one. also need my new front bumper to hurry up. just waiting on them, then the car's off to the garage to sort the tracking and she's finished.

Brill!

Maybe you could put together some "before/during/after" photos, to show us mere mortals how it's done? I'm seriously well impressed!

If you have probs. getting the headlight, try http://www.salvogroup.co.uk/salvosite.htm but I hope you can get one locally.

Have finally got around to putting some pics. of the T4 together and also of our "micro meet" in Coventry. See http://s72.photobucket.com/albums/i177/BlackBeautyT4/ & there are 2 different albums you can click on, then click slideshow.

If there are any pics on the meet album that you'd like removed or edited mong man, do let me know.

Hope the weather (and the insects!) are kind for the spraying today.

you had to ask. the front suspension strut may be bent. if so i'm not going anywhere this saturday. i can get a new one, but i've ordered the adjustable set so i can olny pray the bumper and suspension all come in time. :unsure:

I'm not allowed to swear on the forum, but hell's teeth buddy, she did a right proper job eh?

BB
:wacko:

shock absorber's bent so i'm stuck home. can't really afford to go anyway. still got no transport. so the list gets worse. i'll get there.
