Paul, is that hole in his wind screen where his face went through? or is it where you dragged him out from screaming + kicking?
Crying shame, she looked amazing yesterday as i stood there watching you exit the field - hope it works in your favour fella.

Oh my god! I'm so gutted for you mate, such a beautiful car!
Here she is a few hours earlier at billing.
With your connections she'll be back on the road again. I hope the b*****d drunk driver is badly injured! If not he wants his legs breaking!

think the strutbrace might have saved your bacon a bit and id be concerned about the brake servo lol
you gotta get back on the road dude !
i mind back in the old days of turbo-nutters and turbo-babes forums seeing videos of reedy in his silver 325i drifting like a pro !
sorry to see the car in such a mess.

damn what a bad luck
but still gotta remember that a car is just material (and an E30 is a damn beloved kind of material) but you're the one that's important. A car can be fixed or replaced, but of you, there is only 1 unique peace ! my best luck

Reedy works in the parts dept at BMW so parts, shells won't be a problem.
Seriously, sorry to see this!

Oh no, what a c**t. I'd have been going proper mental if that had happened to me.
Such a nice car, make sure any whiplash gets sorted properly too. I have a nasty feeling his insurance company won't pay out due to him being drunk. Is this what the obudsman is for?

They will have to pay out even if he was drunk, only difference is they will sue him for it.

I remember you posting the pics you took recently and thinking she was a stunner..
The wife saw the pics you'd posted and she was pretty upset by it all!
Hope you can bring her back!

Thats a real shame
Is that the one that was parked-up at Billing near my black tourer on Sunday? Looked a real nice car if so
Best of luck with getting it sorted fella!
