    Now wait a second, I live in South Carolina, and I am from KC, MO. Is this a conspiracy?

    Thats a bummer James, but thank God for damage limiting cladding eh! Imagine if that was steel!

    Think of me though - I let my wife borrow the VX whilst her daily driver was in the shop. In 24 hours she managed to do more damage reversing it onto our drive than I've done in just over a year of off-roading, including sliding sidways into a rocky gulley!

    ^^^Rock sliders are your friend!

    Might pull the cladding panel off and take a heat gun (carefull not to melt it) and a spoon to the inside and persuade it back into shape.

    I am a bit worried about the repair centre, they have managed to run up a £1700 quote for the 'scratches' on the cladding and no mension of the steering problem which in my mind is the most important thing.

    I spoke to the insurance and the repairers said ' the steering wheel must have been fitted incorrectly'.....................YEAH! NICE ONE!!!! i've been driving it for two years with the steering wheel upside down and the airbag poised and ready to explode into my nuts

    Retards!

    Dat sux dude.

    My repairs were on the opposite spectrum. I told them that I didn't need the cladding replaced but they considered it required. The only snag on my repair was finding the sector shaft replacement and a fellow member helped out with that.

    I don't laugh out loud much while reading through the forum at work, but I have to admit...That one got me.

    Hopefully the insurance company felt the same way about the engineer report

    We want you to get blackie back also. We know that's it's taken the wind out of your sails - you don't post that frequently these days - which I for one miss. Keep with it and keep the faith that when you resolve it your VX will be even more precious to you.

    fingers crossed Kirk
