R.I.P....(New car!!!!!!!!)
« on: 16 March 2013, 16:04 »
I'm sorry to have let the Mk4 side down, but this morning I was subjected to some slippery/oily dual carriageway as I was changing lanes, resulting in this... :lipsrsealed:



Most importantly, no one else was involved, and I walked away from it without a scratch on me! I'm sad that it's the end for the girl, especially as her credentials are fantastic, but she held up when it really mattered, and I'm grateful for it! Bless her, even after this, she still starts up without hesitation :cry:

Two points of note:

1) I was SO lucky that the tree smashed through the rear window and not the one by my head!! :lipsrsealed:

2) Invest in recaros, as the big bolsters held me in, as I waited for the impending impact!
