Steve TDI Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Well, it's not been a good year for me with cars and now this happened.Just driving down the main road and this Punto just pulled right into me.

Steve TDI Posted July 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Just fitted brand spanking T1R's to the front. Done about 500 miles with them, if that.These things just happen though. He was just following a Black Van so couldn't see that the path wasn't clear. Just pulled across me.He was only 18 years old. I just hope he has learnt from it and he will stay safe in the future.

Defcon5 Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Shame Are you breaking it then or fixing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardaft Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 (edited) That is a real shame, it looked to be a very nice car going my your members cars thread. I would be livid if someone else wrote my car off. Have the airbags gone off? If not would it not be easy enough to repair it??

Steve TDI Posted July 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 sorry to hear mate. i saw it after it happened when the recovery van was just turning up. i couldnt tell if it was yours or not. hope your ok fella.I'm not too bad thanks. Just a stiff and sore neck and lower back. The joys of having a bump.Are you breaking it then or fixing it?I'm going to be breaking it mate. PM me if you want anything.I would be livid if someone else wrote my car off. Have the airbags gone off? If not would it not be easy enough to repair it??I was a little pissed, but I did the same thing (went into the back of someone) 3 weeks after I had passed my test. So I know what it's like to be the other person. I learnt from my mistake, I hope he can do the same.The air bags didn't go off. I wasn't going fast enough. It's a cat C write off, so I don't think i'll get much for it after fixing it. Plus they never seam the same afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northwick Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 You'll have plenty people after those wheels. Shame about the car. You gonna get another? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve TDI Posted July 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Slight change of plan. I'm going to stick it straight onto ebay and see what I can get for it as it is. After a week, if I don't get the offer I want, then i'll strip it.All it really needs is a new front end and a quick Jigging. So i'm going to price everything up and see where I can earn the most £'s.The fun just never ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
