got it all checked out new alloy and tyre now total cost £260! (tracking 20, check by dealership 35, alloy from dealership 135, tyre 70)

he was foreign i couldn't understand a word waited for police but the lorry driver decided he had enough of me standing in front of his lorry and started to rev his engine - needless to say i moved

Good opportunity to get rid of that Conti :thumbup: Glad it's all sorted and hope the lorry driver coughs up.

Opps.. I suppose it could of been worse..

Where abouts are you as I just happen to have a spare vRS alloy :)

ouch glad the rest of the car is ok though

Looks like the brake disc has rusted up a bit. Been stood around long? Hope there's no underlying subframe, etc damage. :)

After a more thorough inspection of said pictures, I concur! :o:rofl:

I just saw a circular bit of rusty colour and assumed it was the disc and the shot was taken on the car. :D

I was hoping this was a guide on 'how not to kerb an alloy' that I could pass to SWMBO:D
