I think so.
I dont know. Dont even know if i can be bothered with a car.
Taking it all apart made me think, do i really still enjoy modifying my car? Is it really worth it?
Especially taking my roof lining out after i had spent ages making all the wiring in the roof so tidy and neat

Yes, believe it or not

Posted yesterdy on the last page.

Mum took a picture of it being taken away by the burrows lorry today
Said they would tape the plates up and put her in a secure compound till tomorow.
Guy said as far as he is aware returns are free if the car is bought back And if i said i want is back they shouldnt touch it - will have to wait and see.
Also said they might repair it seeing as they dont have much work on atm - but i cant see that being true

Well, she was written off as a Cat C Ive bought her back, a the time of writing this im hoping she will be turning up in the next couple of days Back home where i can look at stripping her in the summer.

Not going to be putting her back on the road, so i guess its the end of an era, my first car now dead RIP V947 MCA


There might be a new thread some time soon if i get a new car

Well, there is rarely an update on my pride and joy anymore, but here is a little one.
I never though i would be using these on it with intent to do some damage



She did have a temporary plaster on hiding her pain -


But underneath -




Hammer and TLC wasnt working on her, she was a bit too smashed into the slam panel and i wanted my battery off the car. So after a while of getting fed up, i gave in and brought out the real tools -


Left her looking a bit spacca but got bonnet open -


Anyways, that was that.
I needed the SXI's off for my new car (reasons as shown in new project thread ) So V947 got some new (but unwanted) shoes -


.....

Because the small plaster wouldnt cover her shame of the wheels enough, i had to make it bigger to hide her face -
