Oh no

Very glad you are OK, yet again the mini does an incredible job of protecting the inside.
But so sorry to see such a nice mini with all the works tossed.
No more MC40s...perhaps time for a GP?

Also:

Not very nice to keep your photos where others can't view them.

John,
I am so very glad that you are here to tell us about your incident.

Of course it's awful that it's happened, but Che gave himself for you so you could still be with us.

Another MINI is much easier to acquire than another John.

Not to be a ghoul, but are you interested in selling the seats from Che?

April you stole the words right out of my mouth. Guess us convert owners think alike!

John as I stated on NEMINI, I am just glad you made it out OK.


RIP Boo

Sorry about your accident John! I only got to meet Che once, alas.
But cars are like dogs (especially in NoNo's case). When the old one dies, you think nothing can replace until, until that lively, pl;ayful pup works its way into your heart...
The important thing is YOU survived relatively intact.

You gals are vultures...just kidding, but acutally if the car is totaled by the insurance co. then they own it and you can't part it out unless they approve.

Included in my offer is a perfectly good set of space cloth seats. Can be artificially stained to mimic being in an accident.

ya'all are sick. if they don't give me what che was worth, than I will have to request the jcw components and the pieces particular to the mc40. I think I'd prefer the cash, though. I'm not aware of any program whereby an insurance company gives you both.

Oh and again, thank you so much for the sympathy.

I will upload some photos tonight that you all can see without registering to NEMINI.org. Thank you for alerting me. I had forgotten.

Sorry to hear of your accident, I'm glad you are okay. Please take care of your self because as someone said earlier injuries from such an accident can show up later.

John I have heard of people getting money from the insurance, and then turning around and offering the insurance company a few hundred for the car (might be worth it if they don't give you full value). But I would get together receipts and such for at least the JCW kit you had installed.
You know we wouldn't want to see you motor in anything other then a MINI.

Also, I think if you link the NEMINI photos using [img][/img] tags it might work.


RIP Boo

When a car is declared a total loss by the insurance company, you can usually buy it back from them for cheap cheap. Might be better to buy Che back, keep the JCW parts, and sell off anything else of value.
