That is good news Alan. Turn the accident into an opportunity and get all the normal gremlins under the front clam sorted while it's being replaced. Plus a fresh, chip free front end.

Has the car been off the road all this time??

That is madness. But at least you'll soon be back in the Elise again. Did your policy cover a loan car?

Car is drivable even managed to get it through an MOT last month.

I believe the French manufacturer of the clams went bust and it has taken all this time to get a new supplier on-board, hopefully others will not have such a long wait.

I would have been happy to use a pattern clam but insurance insisted on an OEM clam.

Would be a laugh if the new OEM clam fit worse than a pattern one!

I trust they've supplied you with a courtesy car for the duration?

Full respray - same colour?

Yeah just going to keep it the same colour

Mark the car is still drivable so did not need a courtesy car, don't think the insurance co would have paid for one for a year.

Makes life easier! Should look great when it's done.

P.S... was not suggesting anything was wrong with the colour it is.
