Guy turned "without seeing me" coming through the green traffic light at about 80. He put his nose halfway across my lane, then hesitated. I went left just as he gassed it - T-boned him at about 60 or so - expected it to be a hell of a lot worse.
Bakkie is pretty ringed, but nothing mechanical besides the radiator (damned liquid cooled stuff :wink: ) Still hope they write it off, looks like it would be more than the 70% of covered value they usually look for....
Thanks for all the replies.

I did get the VolksRodster bootlid finished last night though, so maybe Monday is possible.........I'm just not saying which one :lol: :lol:
