      It is real cool that you spent the money to fix it. Did insurance help pay for the damages?
      Insurance ! they gave me only 1500£ for the repair ! I think they where connected with the theives gang !

            Got back down onto the South Coast last night after 6 hours of driving at snails pace.. Will hopefully pick the S2 up Monday. Pretty much any day after that, I can come over...

                They really abused it! Good to see it's in good condition again.

                                Gery,

                                What a journey, but the end result looks better than the original, but as mentioned, what a tough road.

                                Prefer the current rims to the original ones.

                                I presume you've arranged off street parking ?

                                Best wishes with it's current incarnation, and hopefully it's final and lasting one.
