If only you had stayed :)

Have you considered a re-shell then, could possibly go for a heritage shell?

Yes it had been a thought in the back of my mind, but will see what comes along, I'm not in too much of a rush :)

Obviously echoing the sentiments of others here, but JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZUS! :)

You were really fortunate to be able to walk away, and I'm glad the others were too, but it's a hell of a way to go for a clubby as nice as yours! :)

Hope you get set up with a replacement soon. I'm sure you will! :)

oh no! so sorry for you mate. i know how gut wrenching it feels to have something like this happen. but your clubby was so nice! its such a shame. although as long as everyone invloved is ok that the main thing.

i definitely think you should rebuild! thats clearly the sensible (???) thing to do in these situations :) all the best of luck mate.

Gutted for you mate. There's been at least 2 Minis involved in prangs on my local Mini forum too.

But at least you weren't hurt which is the main thing.
