Whoa.
Glad you’re okay, metal can always be replaced. Sad way for it to go though 😞
Got a thread going for the new project?

I thought I saw this pop up on one of the Metro pages being stripped post accident. It’s a shame but the main thing is you’re ok🙂

Mechanic's rule #1... If the car works, anything left on the floor after you finished wasn't needed in the first place

Glad you're ok and that the cage did it's job. Are you fitting a roll cage to your new project?

Thanks for all the well wishes! Yeah all the fast bits have been taken by another metro nut called shaun, he's got a minter he's popping it all into, including the cage! Which is really nice, like it's got another life.
Yes my new project will have a cage.... No reason... (specified by my wife)

Oh what a shame was looking forward to seeing what you had plans for. Could you get Shaun on board?? Also does this mean a new thread for the Fez and potentially a new name?

No, not rebuilding it, didn't want another fast car after the crash so let the insurers take it all. Yes there will be another thread starting soon and yeah probably a new user name...
