After having a chat with my crash repairer friday night over a couple of beers we came to a decision not to repair my damaged XR6 which has been waiting patiently in the shed at work for me to be in a position to get on with it.
After having a serious think about it we came to the conclusion that I could go out and get a decent XR8 for around the same money it would cost to fix this one. So the decision was made not to go ahead with it, a hard decision for me but a sensible one I think. So in the next 6 months or so the hunt will be on for something for a replacement. |
