Hi there guys, apologies if Im going over old ground here, but Im pretty new to posting in forums such as these, so any help or critique would be appreciated

I own a 2010 370 GT Sat-Nav (SW), which after some joyriding toerag nicked it and put it through a dry stone wall, is now a shadow of its former self

Anyway, the insurance company wont pay out yet, as there is a criminal investigation on-going as they so delicately put it. I just want my car fixed, and get back to destroying rear tyres like we used to ;-) Are there any spares dealers that people in the UK use for either used, discounted or pattern parts?? A lot of the sites Im hitting cover the 350, but not the 370. Am I being a tool, and looking in the wrong places?? Cars coming back on tuesday, and I'm itching to get cracking, but to order all spares from Nissan is MAHOOOSIVELY gonna pull my pants down.

Has anyone here got any similar experience of rebuilding a smashed 370 or indeed building a track special?? Im not fussed about OEM style panels etc. GRP is light after all!!!

I have rebuilt classics before from nut n bolts, but this job is proving far more difficult in terms of finding dedicated specialists!!

Respectfully yours, B
