golf vr6 written off.. new pics
« on: 28 June 2006, 02:08 »
A few days ago a car drove into the side of the gof vr6 and peugeot 307 and i got pinballed into a railing.... the 307 had looked like a truck had hit it, the vr6 had ripped the front off this 307, the headlights of the 307 were bouncing down the road infront of me.. the bumper, rad fan the whole lot...

its bent the chassis leg and the inner wing its virtuly hitting the alternator belt. its damaged the front and down the side of the car.. its also bent the nearside chassis leg due the the crumple zones absorbing the impact its spread it throught the front of the chassis...

it was my brothers car so i'm really gutted about it.. even though i cant stop people from driving into me.  i feel extremely bad.


100% gutted........ :cry: :cry:

Yeah I know what you mean... Thats really harsh I wrote off my Polo (Went into a truck at 70mph) and it was my parents but I drove it all the time and I felt bad for months infact I couldnt drive for 1 month just getting over it... I was fine but the stress I had on myself.

I always drive 10mph less now everywhere I go and I get worried as soon as I go past 75mph on the motorway.

Hope you get it all sorted out and you always got someone to talk to
Who wanna get halfed up by a half wit
Who got a gang a problems
And dont give a half sh!t b!tch

From photos it looks repairable. Depends on chassis damage.

Get as much as ya can from Insurance then buy it back off em and get it done yerself!

just think how the VW took the damage, they are good strong cars, admittedly theres damage, but if u were driving french monkey metal it would be a different story!!

Lay off the French stuff you!

I had a Renault 21 that took a Dumper full of concrete smack in the side and it survived!!!

Dumper wasnt travelling to fast but an all up weight of 4 tonnes dont have top be moving fast!
