I wrote my AX GT at that speers, it just crumbled! Shocking really, esp looking back as to how i drove it.

Ah dude thats just gutting. If only you could multi-task like us female drivers, you'd be able to look at your mate's car and drive at the same time ;)

Will be good to see pics of your repaired front end :)

yeee finished all of the repair work....£500 odd gone in pocket but, i do any an entire new front end including a second hand exhaust manifold with the cat in..
