left work today in wolverhampton just north of birmingham, when i went round a bend (in GGS mode) slid down the the hill/bend mounted the kerb straight into a lamppost causing the post to drop to the floor s if it was made out nothing!! the front HST bumper is scrap and the grille and if im right the bonnet aswell! i was ready to cry. reversed back and got the hell out of there so i didnt have to buy new lamppost loll thus not relising i'd lost the front no plate so went back got the plate and llegged it had to keep stopping as i kept loosing most of the bumper on my way home! so if anybody has a hst bumper hanging about id be much gratefull if i could buy it off you
to sum up, a terrible day!!

Feel for you mate - its a horrible feeling just kerbing an alloy so I cannot imagine how you are feeling. Hope its all sorted soon.

I think the subject should be STUPID DRIVER!!!! damaged light post...

Karma will come and get you for not reporting the damage, You're engine will probally quit soon....

GROW UP TDV8 boy 

Sounds like your bumper is hanging about - so morally you content with someone else picking up the cost for the lamp post or should you pay for it - OK avoiding it but then other parties then carry your cost


The snow did not damage the RRS the driver did - physics still apply

i think acole10000 you need to get a life mate! fair enough i had an "accident" which every body does EVEN the best of drivers in the world and yes i do need to grow up as being 18 yrs old with a tdv8 rrs is a bit..... lets say unusual and growing up i'll do as i'm sure you did at the age of 18!!! like i said get a life and if youve got nothing nice to say dont say nothing. As this FORUM isnt a place to have a dig its a place to make friends share each others experiences and thats all it is im trying to do.
As for the lampost im pretty sure when i go and tell my friend that i've hit his lampost on his estate karma wont get me to bad!!! reason i legged it was so was so the local patroling police officers didnt see it and make me put it through my insurance, meaning i can sort it out direct with my friend!

TDV8 - sorry to hear about your accident mate

in case of the forum being here to make friends and share experiences, remember its also a place for free speach so you will always get every type of response - I'm sure as you get older you just rise above it like the rest of us. Everyone makes mistakes and we need to take the abuse for them - I mean, look at Angel and his base spec AUDI A3........................... .......sorry, got distracted there for a second.

Hope you your rrs sorted soon.

Seriously a RRS is a man's car and you should learn how to drive such a vehicle first. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

i remember spinning my sisters Fiat Panda when I was 18 - I would like to say it was a accident, however alas it wasn't - it was just me being a prat

I smashed my Mini 1275 GT when I was 18 when this tree jumped out in front of me! 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

Gutted that you've pranged you pride and joy.

I've also had a recent encounter with a lamp post so know how gutting it is ... it wasn't even snowing so I can't use that excuse.

I must admit I didn't hang around to see how the lampost was feeling or leave any contact details ... I'm quite happy knowing that the huge amounts of PAYE and council tax I have been paying for the last 20 years will be going towards something other than dole bludgers and rent on asylum seekers houses !

Don’t get mad at me because remember you are the one that said you “reversed back and got the hell out of there so i didnt have to buy new lamppost”, Then you decided to make up this crazy story how the light post is on your friends estate.

So now I have learned that not only are you a bad driver, you are also a liar, not to mention you will still have bad Karma (oh and yes acne).
