On my way to the supermarket this morning, some dozy &*%^ decided to pull out a side road, right into me. My right of way, but I managed to keep my cool and refrained from giving him a piece of my mind.

Could not engage any gear, lost all coolant, and a few lights and buzzers going off on dash. Had to be recovered.

Not a happy bunny :'(

I feel your pain:(

Damn dude :(

Sorry to hear this and what a shame - nice looking car.

Hope you're ok though, and that things are settled in your favour speedily.

Best Wishes

Sarah

Ouch, that is not good!

Sorry to hear this mate, fair play for keeping cool, id have gone mental! Hope it gets sorted out for you.

Gutted for you :'( I know how I would feel. Hope you get it sorted soon!

been there done that, didnt keep my cool im ashamed to say

still as annoying as it is, it'll be fixed in no time matey and youll be as good as new

enjoy the loan car

I know how you feel mate, I hope it gets sorted quickly for you and make sure that you get it repaired by who you want and not just who the insurance company say. I fell for that one and they wrote the car off and boughtit off the insurance company and now its back on the road.

Having written off a few cars in my time...

I would say thats a write off mate... :'(

Aww no, unlucky mate, looks quite severe. Well done on keeping cool though. Not sure many others could do the same

I hate how your premium will be affected even tho it wasn't your fault, uk is the only country where it happens :(

Ouch, hopefully they will settle quickly

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Hopefully he'll be back, but who knows :'( Had a tiny bump in this same car a few years ago, and that was a £3500 claim So goodness knows what the rip off merchant repairers will charge for this bump.

The photo actually makes it look better than it did in the flesh - which I suppose is not a good thing.

On a plus side, got the courtesy car today - brand spanking new BMW 118d M sport! Not driven a RWD car since my 1969 Land Rover!

Good news:

Been given the green light for repair!
