i'm really gutted for you mate :( but the wheels looks good in the second picture! ;)

There are some more pics of the wheels see link below.
As for the car ther seems to be no damage which is effecting the cars driving,he hit me right on the corner.
Insurance say it seems a clear cut case to add to which the guy could not say sorry enough,it should be in the workshop within 48 hrs.
Wheels look good though.

thats really disheartening on a new car , if it mkes you feel better a guy i know bought a brand new ford pos from a dealership right near man uniteds ground ,was waving to the sales guy as he pulled out and hit a bleedin double decker bus , he wasnt actually clear of the site .

good job it wasnt a proper car i know but hey.

hope it fixes okay and check the repair really carefully under good lights.

That's harsh dude. Accidents are a pain I'm sure when they're your own fault, but even worse when they're someone else's doing.

Small consolation I know, but at least it can be fixed.
