My poor baby!




The result of some young Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad driving like a bat out of hell! Censored

He ended up getting carted off to hospital with a knackered wrist and light injuries (as well as getting done for dangerous driving!) and I'm OK (ish) so could have been a lot worse. Exclamation

Gutted though! Big Cry

I'm gutted for you - but the main thing is that you are ok.

Yeah, good job i was driving the RRS as the boys in blue said that anything much smaller would have probably rolled.

Estimate he was doing about 70mph round a tight bend, in a Seat - bloody - Leon!!!

I think the rust patches are (or were) on the side step, which is a Land rover part and only about a year or so old. Rolling Eyes

and thats the reason why i like a 4x4, bit more sturdy when hit giving piece of mind for you and the family etc

Looks like his skid mark originates well into your side of the road, and at 70mph lucky to have side swipped you as both cars and people will have been possible more injured

At least you'll be covered by his insurance (if he has it) and you'll be back behind the wheel in no time and your will repaired (or written off) without effecting your NCB
