Crikey, that was a large bill for repair!
What was the full extent of the damage just as a matter of curiousity?
Good luck with finding a replacement.
If it's any consolation, I spent months looking for a 986 & eventually found a nice car with good history, spec & in excellent condition. It was written off in a non fault accident less than 3 months later. However, a couple of months after the car was written off I found a lovely 987 to replace it with. It's a much better car & to be honest a good thing came out of the 986 being written off. Maybe a nicer car will be around the corner for you...
