I was involved in a prang today and it looks like my Country Club will be a write off!
As I have spent some of the day being checked up at the hospital, I haven't had time to inform my insurance - that's a job for tomorrow.

I don't expect to be paid what it is worth to me but I will try and buy it back for renovation or spares. It's only the front end damaged, so I will probably soon have loads of bits for sale!

Meanwhile, I am searching the websites for another Country Club, most likely in Italy. If anyone sees something for sale, please let me know. I hope I get one before it snows! :bang:

Oh you are kidding, that's a crying shame. Not too many in that nick in this country. As long as you got out safely it's done a good job anyway. Good luck with the rest now.

Sorry to hear about this, I was parked next to you at MITCAR and it did look a very good example indeed. Hope you can get it repaired, but as you say I'm sure your insurance company will try everything to pay as little as possible for it.

Sorry to hear this. I saw you at Brooklands a couple of years back and it did look very nice. Can you post some pics of the damage when you're up to it, maybe it is repairable.
Great reg. no. for a 4x4, will you be keeping that?

Can't believe it. As others have said it's a cracking example just like Allen's.

Glad to hear your ok though. Who was at fault may I ask. If it was other party you've more clout in regards to getting what it's worth, or possibly repaired depending upon damage level.

All the best.

Jon.

Sorry to hear the news - I remember seeing the car too (I think it's the same one) when it lived up by Windermere. It looked great. Hopefully you'll find that it's repairable. Glad you're OK though.

We happen to have a Country Club too, as of a month or so ago, but it's one of the first series ('95). Doubt there are many in the UK! Strange coincidence but the reg we were given by the DVLA is slightly 'muddy' too - M---UDB (not nearly as good as yours!).

Best wishes
