Re: Highland drive 2014....The Aftermath!!
Wow Peter, that's fantastic!
I knew it could be done, it's very similar damage to what happened to mine last October. It's just tricky predicting what insurance companies will do. You just did the damage in a much more impressive way than me ;-)
Makes all that effort rescuing the car by everyone feel really great.

Glad to hear the car is to be repaired Peter , it was to good to go to the big garage in the sky.
Vehicles are just like a giant Meccano set and should not be feared, but respected
Re: Highland drive 2014....The Aftermath!!
Yeah I visited the cave last year when you lot headed off for Ullapool. It's well worth a visit next year. There's a boat trip right into the cave if anyone fancied it. I just didn't fancy 6 hours drive home after being soaked.
