Sunday:

Playing footy.... ripped ankle ligaments. ankle is a mess

monday:

(day off)

Lying on sofa resting my ankle in an ice pack. Hear an almighty bang, car alram going off.

Hobbles to window to see what's going on. Where's my car gone. F**K!!!!

Goes outside. mother of hell. Some **** in a van has slammed into my black beauty, sent it 40 odd foot up the street and through some poors sods front wall. Was doing 30 mate. yeah, fecking right pal!!!

Well, the vrs is going to car heaven today. i miss her. its a sad sad day.

:eek: Is it a write off? :( A bugger of a weekend indeed!

yeah the valuer got upto 8.5k worth of damage then stopped. i couldnt believe it mate. i could just cry

30 to do that much damage, my ar*e.

Hope the bloke gets done for something, and that you get yourself sorted with a new car soon.

Daft question, but assuming the airbag module didn't go off you might want to speak to eddyH as he was hunting for one from a fabia to go in his car. He might be able to buy it off you or the insurance.

mine was an octy vrs. it is off to the breakers today. got my eye on an a3tdi. in process of buying a house so need something cheaper to run and insure.

Yes I would very much like the airbag. If someone has details of the breaker this has gone to I'd be interested but I suspect this car will be sold complete and repaired.

more than likely. well im from newcastle so i suspect it will be going to a scrappy around there

As you're ankle is up on blocks, I'll volunteer to kick the van driver for you!

ouch & ouch

hope both problems get sorted quickly

Thats really bad luck mate hope you get your ankle and car sorted soon.

****. Someone just did this to my car, except they drove off, leaving me to find the mess later that day. Not quite as bad though. Consolations matey.

Did he stop? Did the Police breathalyse him?

Gutted for you. Good luck getting a replacement.

thanks peeps!

yeah, he got breathalysed. went through my sols and i have been told i will be getting full retail value back. more than loan is worth. have been told i will be getting nice payrise and xmas bonus too. nice sweetner but i miss ma baby.

as for the ankle. still a mess.

Ah buddy. Your ankles really swelled up. Hope you get better soon!

cheers

What a shame :(

Hope everything gets sorted quickly and easily for you, ankle included!

All the best,

Steve

Bummer :(

I can't imagine what it must feel like, I can't help giving mine the once over when I go to get in it. Velma, my old car was beaten up twice and I got mad then sad :(

bum, shame such a nice car got written off. Any better photos ?

just done an insurance quote on audi, only 50quid less than the vrs. how does that work?????

might look for another vrs then

only had it 7months. only photos i have after 2 weeks of owning it are;

Sorry any picks of the car after the accident. Interested at how much damage was needed to right it off
