Main thing is you're all right. To the christian motorists on here you've never hit VTEC in your S2000? So judgemental some people on here.
£600 I'd definitely buy that back. You'd make your money back and then some. Providing the engine cut out when it went upside down rather than ran for a lengthy period it'll be fine. Engine and box and running gear would be worth £1000-£1500 even with that mileage if you sold box engine ecu and all associated ancillaries. Anything else you sell, Diff, interior, seats etc is a bonus really.

Yeah that's f u cked
Not as bad as the one PaulF rolled but pretty good effort.
Unless you can buy it back stupidly cheap < £800 and have space / time to spend a month stripping and selling parts .... i'd not bother. If you can do that and then punt the shell on to a breaker as scrap ..... then it might be worth it.
Have to counter that with having a broken dirty thing laying around though.

It's really good to see you hear to tell us about it, and as Tom says ignore the 'christian' drivers on here, plenty of 'f@#king told you so experts' on here at times, so kudos for letting us know and that you and your brother thankfully are ok. I don't know about the parts ... but it probably is worth buying back at that price, good luck

I mananged to take the keys out so the engine will of only been running for like a minite upside down.
The very next day i went to Copart to see the damage Id caused, was a depressing time.
Many Thanks for your kind comments, I think im going to end up keeping it rather than some company make money from it
Im awatiing my insureance to come back to me with a settlement and Ill try find another!

Unlucky dude. Happens to the best of us.
Personally I would take the money. As it's been rolled, would you really be happy selling mechanical parts such as engine and gearbox that have been upside down.
Too much risk of someone knocking on your door asking for money back.
Cut your losses, you're alive, and you live and learn
Get another s2k with the payout
