Hey Phil,

 

:wave:

 

Welcome to the forum. I had a 91 G60 but my rubbish previous job forced me to sell it as the commute was unjustifiable in its expense. I'm sure you'll love your new car. My G was the best car I've ever owned and I've had a LOT of dubs. What were you driving before?

 

Joe

That depends mate. How much money and/or spare time and/or patience do you have? :D Only joking. I wish I had been able at the time to go down the road of rebuilding mine when I had it. How bad is the damage?

to be honest not that bad! just a dent on the front wing with a scratch going down the door and a scratch about 4cm long on the rear wing, also a bit of laquear peel above the rear window. getting the whole side done for £250. Looking forward to it!
