Default ORSM8 Rises from the Ashes

Well after over 3 weeks of wondering if orsm8 would return to the road im happy to report that my insurance company has decided to repair my car after indicating to me they were going to write it off. I just dropped by the panel beaters tonight and work has commenced . I hope it wont take long.Cheers

Have just returned from looking at the car. John and his team have done a fantastic job in bringing ORSM8 back to life. I am very happy with the standard of work.

There is no doubt about it. Very high standards and good people to deal with. That is why I told you to take your car to Customs. Your car looks fantastic. Start building a trophy cabinet. Here comes ORSM8.

Cheers
