Only problem is the car was t-boned by a truck recently and the drivers side needs a lot of work. I'm not sure what I am going to do with it as it is quite an expensive repair job.

I started to pull the orange car down... there is a lot of damage an its quite expensive to fix. Not looking good for the car :-( The bloke who does my work says theres a fair bit of $$ in the B pillar alone, not to mention the other parts I need..

I've driven it and its great fun though! Be it with very flat spotted tyres.
