Title: The story of my life
Post by: calum93 on 17 August 2010, 22:12
I turned 17 2 months ago. So I bought a bog standard 1.4 mk5 golf. Yesterday I passed my driving test with only 5 minors only to burn out my clutch 7 hours later. My dad was towing me to the garage when the rope snapped and a metal clip went through the back of his £60k x5. Today I wake up and walk to the gym for a game of badminton when I go over my ankle, now I'm lying in my house without a working car or ankle so I thought I would join up and say hi.

Hi

More to the point how did you manage to burn a 1.4 clutch out?  Burnouts with your mates?

Oh hai!

Welcome. Best get the sh!t out of the way while you're young.

I went over on my ankle lasy New Year's Eve.  Stepping off a kerb whilst walking the dogs.  Nice.
