Yes mate, it gave him the push he needed to fully strip it down and start again with the bodywork. Luckily not much mechanical damage.

I'm glad I went for Quaife, it took about 3 weeks to get made. Are you changing the diff yourself? My Coupe will be getting stripped soon. So I can fit it all into a Corsa. So far it looks like Steve Milton is my best bet to get it fitted.
