Hey guys! Thanks for everyone's kind comments! I'm soooo happy! Very superficial damage to be honest. Need a rear window seal and ignition barrel...and a stereo. But apart from that it's fine! They obviously wanted to maintain its value etc.
Anyways, repairs will be completed swiftly but unfortunately the car will still be up for sale ( Wasn't 100% before, but would have for the right money...but now i need to. I cant ever have it at my place again because even if they dont try and nick it they'd probably come back and cover it in paint stripper or key it up etc.

Shame really, but all good things come to an end hey! Released to the wild

Again, thanks to everyone on FB and all the forums. It absolutely insane how many put pics of Orange as their profile shots and their status's spreading the word etc. Even people i dont know! And as it turned out, it was a mate of a mate of mate....so all due to the internet and everyone's kindness! Really humbling

Regards!
