Was it a bloke from up north near Middlesbrough by any chance? If so, I drove past it a few minutes after he'd crashed it, looked a right mess. A friend of mine knows the owner, apparently his Dad is a millionaire, so it's small change to him. If it's not the same one, I apologise!

At least some proof that all damage-repaired cars are not going to kill you.

I'm currently on with an 11 plate Honda Jazz that's been bummed sensless. Needs a pair of rear 1/4's boot floor passenger inner 1/4 complete, chassis leg complete to just infront of the rear seats. It's got about 2k on the clock, and it's alredy had a drivers side 1/4 b post and pair of doors on it. I'll be getting some pics along the way, although the chassis leg is on order from Honda and they don't have one anywhere apparently. Been sat for 3 weeks un touched now.
