loads of blue ones on the approved site but i'd go a different colour MCB is thee most common colour

Dunno what your budget it is though.
Hi,
Monte carlo is the only colour i would have, would also want the comp pack and the multicontour seats. Basically what i had!! Probably going to buy a cheap run about and take my time. More than likely an M5 or M6, not much else floats my boat apart from a DB9, too much to run though.
Cheers

Funnily enough when I tried an F90 it was to 'Star Warish' for me inside and man the seats were hard.I know you said you preferred the interior but I am happy with my F10. Even the latest C63 interior is a let down, cheap looking according to Huesey compared with the F10.

Really sorry to see this heusey, most important thing is that everyone is ok though. The car be replaced even if it takes some time though I know its upsetting...I was upset when our 2009 civic was written off when some lemon drove into the back of it while my wife was stationary in traffic coming off the M1. Had that car 10 years though - expect Id be livid if it happened to my M5.

No airbags gone off just head restraints no problem there. The car is a peach for someone to repair with all bolt on panels and my mate could do the back floor panel no problem.If it was mine I'd buy it back from insurance for the right price obviously on condition it had no Cat codes.

My view would be to get rid, I will never be the same again, I had my M6 vandalised a few years back, the car was only 6 months old, I could'nt live with the fact that it has been repaired so replaced it with a new one.

It will down to the insurance company

When we go to visit friends and stay overnight it's a prerequisite that the M will be parked in their driveway, if not we use the wifes car

Hi,
Just to update, the insurance has been a mare, they have offered me 21k. I still owe more than this with the settlement figure. I think a 50k mile LCI competition package is worth more, not many for sale. however I know we get shafted. The salvage seems cheap at only 5k, I have a friend interested but will see what he offers. How much do you think the car would go fort in current state bearing in mind its only body damage. Engine, gearbox, leather, dash, steering wheel, electronics, alloys, mirrors, and all the other bits and bobs must be worth decent money if broken. Thought's please.
Thanks

Has it been 'cat' stamped e.g. cat D or is it clear. Someone might want to repair it if it's clear as it looked perfect pre accident.

5k for the whole thing looks mouthwatering for a body repairer and it still drives.

Hi,
Exactly my thoughts, im taking it thats my price, will it be more if someone goes direct to the salvage if i dont take it? I know a lad at work who buys salvage and fixes them up, only does top end cars. Going to chat to him tomorrow
