to cut a long storey short, some woman pulled out on a car in front of a car in front of me, the car in front braked hard, i braked locked up tried to avoid hitting the car in front, and hit a car on my left hand side. then hit the kerb and flipped my car. so sadly my pride and joy is no longer.
it hasnt really set in yet but so people keep telling me at least i'm okay blah blah blah.

thanks

Sorry to see that mate, such a nice clean Cav too..
Atleast you are still here though and there is plenty of Cavs left out there for all the bits to be transfered onto

Give it 3 days for it to sink it, big crashes always screw with you for the first 24/48 hours

Ouch, I condole your loss. She kept you in one peace at least.
Damage looks to be fairly superficial. Unless there's any structural damage it could be repairable. Considering all the effort you put into it it's worth considering.

If they can repair Rowan Atkinson's Mclaren F1 they can repair anything.

Sorry to hear it's broken, but it can be replaced and you can't, it could be worse. I am lying in a hospital bed under observation for a suspected dodgy appendix

Looking at this again makes me realise how robust these old cars still are !
Maybe we should start a thread of crashed Cavaliers to let the rest of us see what you walked away from ?

what a shame such a lovely car, are you going to try and buy it back to use it as a donor or are you going to let it go?

Just been to see it at the compound its in and to say its F*ucked is an understatement! Seen the other cars that were involved there too and they are equally as bad!
