Wow... What a shame that was such a nice car, definitely one of my favorite 206 colours. Glad you came out alive

So after a week off the accident,I got a phone call from the garage saying I could go and collect any items that was in the car before being scraped....First reaction when seeing the car back on all fours was S**T!!! Im not going to lie but did have a tear in my eye not for fact that I had crashed my beautiful lil motor,but fact that I was VERY LUCKY to be alive!!!
Here's a few pics of the car back on all fours

But the insurance pays out for the loss... If you take half of the car home, would you still expect the full payment?

When the insurance rang me,I asked if could take them off as was offered £300 for them it I had to have another set available to go straight on and in all honesty wasn't really worth the hassle

I suppose it would need to be mobile in the pound if they wanted to move it...no wheels and its flat to the floor making even forklift moving difficult.
