Definitely a case for justifiable homicide. What can inspire that kind of malicious damage???

Looks like a domestic row or divorce proceedings gone wrong....

Must be to systematically bash every panel at 12" intervals with a hammer.

A friend of ours went through the same kind of thing when she split up. Her boyfriend, now ex-boyfriend, cut off all the left sleeves from her clothes, poured bleach over the remains, then Fedexed them to her.

It looks a really nice car and worth saving, but I reckon £1800 is a bit steep, considering you'd probably need two doors, a boot, a bonnet, a windscreen, a quarter light, and a headlight assembly - that's even before you try to work out how to sort out the body panels, and do a complete respray!

Was there not someone on here a while ago saying they had to sell thier car due to divorce and his wife was looking for the money from the sale and thought it was worth about 8000 Wonder if his wife found out it was not worth as much and did a job on it.

Its hammer time!

What would it cost to fix - about GBP2000? Surely a RHD genuine TR8 is worth more than 4,000. It would be nearly twice that in NZ.
