Just to let you know, my brum brum is no more 
My precious car is a write off.
Me and koe nearly met at the Pearly Whites (gates that is not teeth!) when a car hurtled towards us on the wrong side of the road.
We are ok, but the car is a write off.
The driver was blatantly drugged/pissed up and we (and the police) think the car was stolen.
Why I am posting this I am not so sure, but I want symapthy for my poor car!

Just remember your car has gone to a better place-its gone to the big scrap yard in the sky. Where it can be free from a life of Tesco runs and smelling of take-aways.
Seriously though, pleased your both ok. Cars can be replaced, people cant :thumb:
Crazy Burnley motorists
Calvin, my car didnt allow takeaways, she was far too posh!!
The paramedics said if it had been an older car we probably would have been so lucky, so please guys if you can afford it, buy a car with air bags (even if I am sporting a fetching burn/graze to my chin and lip from one!)
Glad you and koe are okay :thumb:
Shit thats nasty stuff.
Just proves how lucky Bunnie and Koe are!
Bunnie: Next you should buy a Jaguar
People who drive drunk should get their feet cut off, so they can't drive at all. But it seems this one was a thief as well...
Glad to hear you are (physically) okay. As has already been said, cars can be replaced but people can't
my cars nearly as old as me, wouldn't like to fancy the chances in a bad collision :crazyeyes
Having said that, sometimes it's good to hear that others haven't
I'm sorry to hear, thats terrible
Glad your both ok, Emma. But what Calvin said, you can't replace people. Glad to hear your both ok! And not sure how your car insurance works there, but I hope you had a good one
Good to hear you're okay. What type of car was it? A safe one no doubt.
Me too!
I saw a nasty accident on the way into work this morning- makes you think about how you're driving. A friend of mine was speeding through a quiet road over summer, flipped the car and only just got out before the thing went up in flames.
Being involved in an accident like that is a horrible way of learning just how dangerous being on the road can be. We could probably all do with having a bit more respect for it.
I know of so many people who have died in drink driving incidents. I hope they catch however it was that collided with you. xx
Thanks guys, but I wanted sympathy for my poor brum brum
Seems like it is going to be a nightmare coz it is a write off I dont get a courtesy car (due to no repairs) so I will have to be chauffered around I guess.
I feel rather amazing today considering, I am just so pleased we are both ok...but to be honest, I couldnt give a shit if that dirty little bastard had broken a few bones!
But please, this is me begging you all (especially Aiden) please buy better cars if you can afford it, dont put it off. I probably wouldnt be typing right now if it wasn't for the quality of my car which is quite scary shit!
There are some nutters out there who dont care about anyone but themselves, and unfortunately no matter how well you can or think you can drive, these things can still happen. Always keep your eyes on the road!
Lecture over kids...:p
I'm a big fan of Fords ever since Ellie and her family went for a gentle roll down an Alpine mountain in a Mondeo. It's still running too, which is amazing (and I reversed it into a wall a few weeks ago).
Hmm I am sure you were popular! Dad doesnt like Fords, and some of their bumpers are a little plasticy...I may get another black corsa (which is a little sad I am sure)
It has been a bit of a wake up call...I have a pretty perfect life!
I drive a Fiesta at the minute and I love it, I'll be sad when it dies. Much better than Vauxhalls, IMHO. Just avoid the cheap Korean shite (I'd hate to park a Kia Picanto in a tree) and see how you go.
Apparently the Aygo/107/C1 is good, which is surprising seeing how small they are. Look at one of them, I really want a Aygo.
The new SEAT is supposed to be amazing according the paramedic last night, but I think that is a little out of my price range! But I agree, I will not be having a Kia. But definately a newish car.
actually seriously stripping it out and fitting a rollcage but for the amount of comfort that would be lost.... :chin:
Glad to hear you're both ok.
A couple of years a go me and my fella had a drunk drive into his car and it was a write off. Luckily the car wasn't anything special but the police did fuck all. They took statements etc but never bothered to go around to the blokes house until the next morning which is a great idea when it comes to breathalising the guy. We did get £400 off him though towards a new car
I have nothing but praise for the police in this matter...which is a turnaround for me. The car has been impounded and CSI are getting involved tomorrow for dna and fingerprints.
We dont know who the driver was as he legged it (fucking selfish bastard...we could have been dead!) but they caught his scrote of a passenger. But I am sure to say if we knew who he was, it wouldnt be money I would be going around for...
Can't imagine if I seriously crashed Lavender (I've got away lucky when I crashed her before), though I do always wonder what if I couldn't of moved. But I bet I wouldn't of come off so lightly, so your lucky your little car was a good'un and came to your rescue in our time of need!
yeah I remember that. It was horrific. One of them survived from the car being chased...was it him?
