That's rotten.

Any shops with cctv cameras nearby?

I guess it saves having to sell it when the Abarth arrives! I can't imagine it will be anything other than a write off once the insurance company price up a wing, paint to the bumper and bonnet, headlight bracket, possible wheel and suspension components. Similar cars are £4300-£5500 on autotrader.

oh what an absolute arse

Finished it off today and took it for test drive. Successful trip - I was able to buy paella, beer, nuts, and some brioche for tomorrow.

Drove near you today but couldn’t find your number in my phone.. we need to organise a meet with Jon (and anyone else obvs)

Great idea. And well done @Sundayjumper that sounds like a significant undertaking (fixing the engine I mean, not going shopping).
