All the best

Iain, bad luck - but, as Tut says, you're in good company - and so clever to walk away more or less unscathed :)

Hope you're back on the road soon.

Oddly enough I was just thinking about our dear Mikey B's mishap in his S1 at Lix Toll, as I was driving through that area on Sunday.

I guess all the best people have had a bump in their Elise...some bumps are just a bit bigger than others ;-)

Iain, as per my post on SE Dinosaurs, great to hear you are OK and be sure to make the best of that insurance cheque ;-)
