Roadster, Micky, Oxford, Barber, WelshOne & Towed - Thank you gentlemen.

Well it is the morning after, and both the initial shock and gut wrenching disappointment have passed.

Although the aches and pains, from the physical effort I put in, have got worse, so definitely no car work for me today.

Also, my wife and I watched a programme I'd recorded on Chicago gun crime last night (my wife's twin sister lives there).

Which certainly put my little mis-hap into perspective, as no one died and, thankfully, no one was injured either.

So at some point I will finish off the rear spring work, then I'll set about fixing the damage caused.

Given all the other work I've done on the car, this will be a relatively minor job by comparison.

I will also stick to using big lumps of wood to support the car, rather than axles stands.

Take care, Paul.

PS
I forgot to mention that my insurance certificate has been re-issued with my new "C" reg on it.

Where I spotted this specific exclusion in the small print - "or use on the Nurburging Nordschleife."
