the Law is a funny thing :-S

its interesting that i can spend 2 years restoring a car that was on the verge of being half a ton of bent metal and make that roadworthy

 

and then have a car stolen that really only has minor body damage but its deemed never to be fit for road use again....

 

its as though these rules were invented to remove as many older cars off the road as they can...

 

what happened to saving energy and the world and all that rubbish. i could make the corsa roadworthy in a matter of days but because it s written off they wont let me.

 

what happened to recycling!

 

now think of what its cost to put a new car on the road....

[Rick]

sorry to keep moaning by the way

 

i have no-1 else to moan to, nobody understands car things

write to old gordo, see what he says about it

[mossy]

i know the feeling, my very first car was written off...only 6yrs old when i had it a seat ibiza sport...

 

all it needed was a bonnet, headlight and a grill...yet they said it wasnt worth the 100quid in bits to repair!
