Had a great drive home! Woodhead pass was still closed due the the overturned HGV. so I went home via Stoney Middleton / Buxton, took a little longer but more fun!

Thanks for organising the meeting.

Nice to have met the ones who where left when i got there,

some really nice cars

i couldnt be doing with the 50 on m1 so went threw underwood, pinxton etc, was a great fun drive and the roads were really empty. Defo needing the remap :P Im glad everyone went home in the opposite direction to me, lol, tho I would of liked to follow Shark_90

See you next month,

sorry i was not round for long, just came down to say hi and had to shhot off, will defenitly make more effort next time and will get out of work on time (hopefully)

What happened to that? The damage on the roof does not look good. You must be gutted

Yes gutted, was on my lunch break jsut coming back from Tesco Hucknall, coming down the dual carriageway near dakota hotel, braked but too late, totally my fault, went over the roundabout, loud bang as car went up kerb, unfortunately hit an old couples old astra as i exited the roundabout. No injuries to anyone thank god.

The drivers front alloy had a huge chunk missing from it and was flat, all other alloys totalled too, we put the spare on and went on our way once detailed were xchanged. the car still drove but the susp, had collapsed, at work later we noticed the sunroof had dents in all 4 corners and some paint had come off, seems the car had compressed as the doors had all hit each other too as paint had come off and the drivers seat didnt move anymore.

Anyway insurance have said its a write off, its an 03 plate vrs done 105k so im waiting to hear how much they will give me. or if i can buy back as the rest of it was mint condition.

Luckily i can afford to buy a new car in the meantime and the current favourite is the WRC vrs on autotrader, that will be my 4th VRS! i cant find anythingelse as good for the money tbh. ill post some of the other photos later but they are quite depressing to look at, on the bright side the octy is strogly built but their astra was undrivable
