mscherryviolet Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 So it is with a sad and heavy heart that I have to wish farewell to my little project, and my baby. Thanks to @danno for finding her, and losing her! Thanks to everyone, especially El @Rich, for putting in time and advice. Sadly, Cherry passed away Thursday 6th April at approximately 8am. @danno was on his way to a course, when a motorbike plowed into the side of her. Yes the bikers ok, but at fault. Danno is fine too, apart from some whiplash and a sore eye. so many plans with her, so much to do and see. She was fab, apart from her oil burning problem she really was the best little car I ever had in the whole world and I miss her so so much. They gave me a Ford Fiesta to replace her, and this is such sad times. Everything happens for a reason though..... RIP my little princess. I loved you so so much ❤ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mscherryviolet Posted April 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 No he didn't do me a favour at all... I've no car, missed my last day of college, and now I'm putting £20 a day in this courtesy car and can't afford to go anywhere now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 Plus it was a pretty nice bike originally by the looks of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk2 Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 OMG! How awful. Poor bloke on the bike, but you and your cherry.... After all the attention and care. But, you can think positively about it- if you keep the car after agreeing a price with the insurance company, you could sell all the parts for more than you bought it for. But you need somewhere to park it off road. I'm so sorry. Such a shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 I was gonna say, the bloke on the stretcher looked pretty out of it, but let's put this in its proper perspective, she did miss 'bring your own toys in' day at college. I would've been livid too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danno Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 We claimed but through a different company, car has still been assessed and valued pre accident, written off though but we get to keep it. It's electric windows unfortunately. Everything else should be here. I'll double check to confirm and get back to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
