    Well today was the day for me to collect the car from the bodyshop after it's repair. Was a bit touch and go to start with but all worked out in the end. The repairs went really well and the car looks wicked, back to her self again

    A few shots of the damage (before)

    That looks really good. Great job.

    Did you know the EU says that you can't claim that drinking water prevents dehydration. So now you know for sure what many of have known for years that the EU is run by a bunch of nutters.
