Well, I'm not going to comment on the incident, as it's still under investigation by the insurance companies, but here are some pictures of a recent altercation involving my car and another..
![]() Race tape keeping the left hand front bumper together.. ![]() Not so visible, but a big dent in the front left of the bonet, Going to require a new bonet.. ![]() The hit on the left sent the right hand indicator into a spin.. ![]() Front left upper grill bar is ruined.. The headlight assembly is also buggered.. Last edited by Yagz; 04-01-2005 at 05:14 PM. |

![]() Another picture of the front grill.. The bonet protector is false advertising.. :P ![]() The saddest picture :( Will all be fixed ASAP, who is at fault is still being investigated, as it wasn't very clear cut.. Cheers, Yagz |

Was the wood on the trailer fixed and way over the boundry of the trailer, or did it fall off?

Such bad luck mate, your car always looked and sounded sweet when I saw it around. Hopefully it all gets fixed as good as new and you aren't out of pocket. There's nothing worse than driving around in a damaged car, always feels shit compared to when it's nice and shiny and straight.

Ohh god, Yagz I can't beleive this has happened! Its a cliche and a half I know but I know how you feel.
Now your headgasket, clutch, firewall, and pedal box have to break/go while simultaneously trying to pay for a speeding fine and bodykit and 4 new tyres and youll be in the situation i was in 4 months ago!! Heres for a speedy recovery, now i know why you didnt want to cruise yesterday! Bet you wish you didn't sell the car bra to stevo now! Terrible news mate, terrible! good luck -Danny |

It's not bad luck, it's bad driving ;) lol JK.
Hope it all gets sorted out quick knackers. BTW, did you really need 6 awkwardly angled photos and 3 posts? One good photo and 1 post would have done it. Me thinks there's a LOT of whoring going on around here. Sundeep |

Ouch! Make sure you get plenty of photos, and doccument (sp?) everything.
As for the wood incident, as Laminge said, go to the cops and fill out a statement. That way your definately covered. You never know, him falling through on the deal might be your 3 round of bad luck, and then your covered from it. Hopefully all goes sweet with both incidents.

I think the amount of photos were nessecery (sp?), atleast it showed what was done. I think 6 photos showing everything in detail is been than say i photo showing everything but in shitty detail with arrows pointing to things that you cant see... for example the cracks in front bar, or the moved headlight assembly...

How can it be a grey area, unless they ran a red light you obviously hit them, frontal impact means 'at fault' in my experience....
Reguardless of blame it is a shame to see a nice car cop a poke in the eye...
