I probably will. Then break for parts. It was guna be off road end of month to be up for sale for real.... So it could bring someone else joy.
I'd this was before the lemon I would reshell. But I can't now. :-(

If it's a non fault claim and it's not coming off your insurance demand that it is fixed.

It all depends if they can get the sum off house insurance...who are saying it should be building insurance... So three different insurance companies already arguing between themselves.
And my insurance is up for renewal in 12 days :-(

Well the car didn't climb up on the roof and roll all over it did it! Stand firm with them and get them to sort it out between themselves. Insurance is just a numbers game to them, if they can try and reduce a claim in any way they can it's more for their profit margin. If that includes fobbing you off so you accept what they say and you agree to write the car off they'll do it.

...probably not enough. We'll haggle though likely as there isn't another 306 2.1 registered in the country!

As I've said to some... Issues are;
I was intending to take it off the road at end of month. Lemon is almost back. Insurance expires for Racetractor at end of month...
So I can't really drag it out tbh

There was one there but now it has gone. A view from afar with a few bits of tile strewn round the car if you missed it. Seems a bit odd for a car that starred in full HD and had so much time on video and sound editing put into it but maybe that's just me?
A tragic waste of a project that evolved into something quite special imo but money is the new religion after all...
