Well so far they've totally managed to NOT come and assess Nellie, who is now resting safely in our lock-up.
We had to pay storage/recovery fees of over £200 up front which sucks arse as far as I'm concerned!
Big up to Wiltz & Mr Luke for helping Nikki today.
We'll hold fire on any repairs until assessments are carried out.
Thanks to everyone who's offered parts and sympathy. Wouldn't swap you for diamonds.

Spanners, cheers for the wing buddy. Just found out it came up here via Mr Luke. Cheers Luke!

Insurance assessor will visit next wednesday. Taking their time about I feel.

Youths have been charged with Aggravated TWOC. Local coppers are well pleased, as they've been after the pair for ages, and finally have something concrete they couldn't squirm out of.

Did you mention the other side is a bit crusty? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CITROEN-2CV-FRONT-WING_W0QQitemZ250426459511QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item250426459511&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A12|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318|301%3A0|293%3A2|294%3A50

Update:

Spent Saturday a-framing Nellie down to Somerset for Mossey Dicks to work their magic. Footman James seem happy enough to cough up the dosh for repairs.

Registers day should see Nellie back with us and in much better fettle than before!

Fantastic one Aidan. Can I cheekily ask how much the repairs will cost? By all means, feel free to tell me to 'mind my own business', or words to that effect ;) Just curious.

To replace all damaged during the theft with new, prep, spray and fit etc comes to around 900 quid. In reality, as we'll be using a lot of second hand parts (thanks to all who donated parts - we'll thank you in person) this should also cover a good amount of work that needed doing anyway - so the brainiacs who nicked the car have ended up doing us a favour in a way.
