      Nah mate some smart repairs, scuffs here and there and a rear quarter.

      Doesn't surprise me, they've taken it up the rear enough times this season.

      If you don't mind me askin Daz, how come you got the job? No offence like, it's just I remember you work out of your garage don't you?

      No we work out of a unit now mate, we get insurance work in and lots of recommendations from classic cars/kit cars/modifiers owners clubs etc, we got the job because we were recommended by a dealer who we do a lot of work, apparently he's a good friend of his agent.

      Sweet, word of mouth could make you the players man to go to. All you've got to do now is hire a scally to scratch them up.  ;)

      They fully aluminium?

      Had a few aluminium cars in work and they're a pain in the ass, replacing rear quarters on 7 series bmws is a hell of a nightmare

      Check out the price of a used Jeep in the UK, bet you could buy a new one for the same money as a three year old car over here.

      Wouldn't surprise me....it seems all American cars carry a high premium over your way. Of course, most of us yanks can't afford British cars either ;D

      Yea I paid $4.14/gal for Premium this morning. That's about as high as it's been in a long time. When I was in high school (admittedly a long time ago) I remember it being $.85/gal. Those were the days ;D

      I don't even look at fuel prices anymore, I just go fill up, pay then sit in my car and weep before pulling away.
