Brt900 Posted June 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Coming home from Alton towers. Was going round a wet roundabout near jcb. There was some diesel of the floor. I've slid straight off the road hit a kerb and then cracked my sump, gearbox and engine mounting, bumper is just dead and snapped a wishboneThings come in threes gunna be off the road for a while. Hopefully there isn't an issue with the engine but dunno until I get it off the floor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brt900 Posted June 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Got the car jacked up on my drive on axle stands and the engine is held up with some bricks. Subframe has a crack in it, sump has a pretty big hole in it, and 2 engine mounts are snapped and one is bent so as a minimum I need them.
