Why Dont You Look Before Reversing?

[quentin_moss]

Went out on the country roads to Grafty Green today, stopped at a crossroads and the car 2 in front of me decided after pulling out onto the main road to then reverse into me, even though I let rip on the horn and tried to reverse out of his way

Not a happy bunny

Now need a door and a wing, gonna get it down out of insurance cos the guy is young

[granby]

Blimey your not have much luck at the moment

[m@tt untimate STImulation]

[Scooby Hoo?]

Yeah to be fair Granby I am having a proper sh*t time at the minute

And yeah M@tt he was proper sorry and we exchanged details, I said I would try to source the parts secondhand and he can supply a fitter and pay for the parts so I just gotta find a decent green door and wing.

Im too bloody nice

[matthew_buckland]

I know where a black wing and door are and a good, honest reasonable body shop is? Sorry to hear you having lots of crap at the moment mate, thinks will look up soon, bound to.

[m@tt untimate STImulation]

just stick to it .im just commoing out of a sh*tstoorm that my cars put me through. you will get there and when it comes out of the body shop gleaming you will have a big smile on your face :-) credit to you for doing it the hard way with secondhand parts, as a "young" driver i know what our premiums are like

[leebo77]

Aww , thats a bugger. Let me know if you need a decent bodyshop.

[col_2]

gutted!!! sorry to hear that mate, same thing happened to me a couple

of wks ago, not so bad thou, goodluck with sorting it

[yogi-]

FFS Q, bloo*y typical aint it, it makes you wonder what went through his mind all of a sudden to cause such damage, the guy sounds like a right

I think he has a serious psychological problem and should be publicly humiliated then shot

Cheers all, its nice to hear some support, particularly as things r proper **** at the minute, maybe buying green werent such a good idea.

Probably should have just bought a proper WRX in silver and be done with it

If the lad hadnt of been such a decent geezer i might have pulled the job card and called for an ambulance but he seemed like he needed a break so here i go looking for parts to help him

BRING BACK CAPITAL AND CORPORAL PUNISHMENT. BIRCH THE USELESS YOUNG BAR STEWARDS, BETTER STILL HANG THEM. IT SHOULD BE A CRIME FOR ANYONE UNDER 25 TO OWN ANYTHING MORE THAN A ROLLER SKATE, OR MOUNTAIN BIKE. BRING BACK NATIONAL SERVICE. BAN HOODIES. SET THEM TO WORK IN MINES AND CLEANING CHIMNEY'S WHEN THEY LEAVE SCHOOL. DON'T GIVE THEM CUSHY JOBS IN McDONALDS.

calm down mate chill out you was young once.....

[EN4ever]

sorry to hear that man that sucks! hope you get it sorted quick m8.i do agree with deaniage on the mines and chimney sweeping bit

lots of the bits you need on ebay but not correct colour

ive seen a front wing on ebay for 15 quid but its silver

[loonybin]

How very dare you!

maybe you wasn`t then

[swifty1981]

not good mate. someone has revered in to my bumper all the paint is craked

[ScoobyShep]

I know its a backwards way of doing it but id get any door n wing in good condition, get them painted it will be cheaper for the lad in the long run due to the jump in premiums for the lad when he has to reinsure nxt, if I crash again i want to crash into you, you seem realy relaxed about the whole ordeal good on ya mate, I would of blown up n probably ended up getting nicked from the red mist lol

Yeah I think I have done really well to keep my cool, but thats why they call them accidents.

He has bought a door and wing and had them sprayed, just waiting for them to be ready and he is gonna get them fitted, been fairly pain free so far.

Just a proper pain in the ar5e

[quentin_moss]

Well I spent some time on it yesterday and now it looks like this

Much better huh

[gary may]

[m@tt untimate STImulation]

[granby]

Amazing what T-Cut will do

[quentin_moss]
