Thanks. I've written to a local-to-upgarage exporter bunch to secure it :-) |

It's secured. I've also ordered another set of side lights. Last thing to sort out is the bonnet. I'd rather get another in UC ('Crystal White') rather than have to get something another shade ... resprayed. However it may be fixable ?  I ought to get a bodyshop opinion now. I'm thinking 'fix it up' and then look for a good condiiton white one over the next few months. |

Ordered up a red one from the south of Spain (bonnet).
I've found a bodyshop that loves Japanese cars and are good with fibreglass so will let them attempt a repair on my bumper. respray of the bonnet optionally, sort out the very mild dent on the front quarter....

Glad you're getting it sorted mate, I was gutted for you when I saw the gram. So frustrating given the progress you'd be making on the engine work. It is what it is I guess, damn. I'm sure it will clean up well, not ideal at all, but could have been way way worse.

Forgot to ask, did you keep the sheep? Never found it. 100 meters up the road I stopped at a friend's house and was greeted by his two dogs - he wasn't home. Called him a day later, He knows the shepherds and didn't hear anything. |

I went to see it. Damage doesn't look too bad but some impact was definitely punted into the front of the car. the black shock absorber is reusable but some of the metal behind is going to need fixing and tapping forwards.

went to see it again (again), they've rectified most of the things and are now mostly waiting on me to make up my mind on paint :-)
as much as I'd love to go RSA Green I actually really like this car white.
