Maybe it's a good chance for a new start though. There are plenty of bargain Zeds out there.

Been off the forum for a bit but sorry to read that your car has had a nasty shunt by some-one not paying attention - regardless of it being your fault or not for the original accident!

Glad to read that you are ok though and that is the most important thing here!

hope you are either able to salvage the parts you want off it, or buy it back and get it sorted..... good luck with it.

Wonder what happens with insurance as it's two difference accidents! It may be the guy that shunted you pushed it from cat c to b. Surly they should be treated as separate.

Yep, I reckon it could be quite a drawn out process unfortunately with the insurers arguing who pays how much and to whom. Hopefully it will all get sorted sharpish though.

Yip no looking forward to the starting again bit but well thats what I might just have to do, ideally if i get another 180 it will have the 1st mods done to it like exhaust and induction. Will just have to see what turns up tbh An have to keep an eye out as to where mine is going salvage yard wise
