    Bloody hell that's a hard shunt. I was hit at 50-60 and damage was like that.

    Glad he's ok tho.

    ****ing jesus **** **** ****ers How did that happen?

    I don't know anyone who takes as much pride in their car as Drewy, that thing was truly mint beyond words.

    Keep insisting it gets repaired until they give you top dollar for it!!! The insurers will just say "old Astra. Here's £1500" and expect you to be happy but tell them to bollocks!

    And then buy it back when it's written off. I got a wrote off Vec C back for £300 which sold for a grand.

    what hit you mate that is some serious dammage. would have loved to have heard the excuse they tried to come up with for not stopping. hope you get better soon and you get a decent payout on the car or it gets repaired

    Sorry to hear about the crash.

    No way would anyone want that repaired.
    For the love of God, please read the rules

    Hopefully that will be proven from the skidmarks on the road and the **** will get shafted

    I'm sure there were other skidmarks too, lol.

    NO skid marks mate, it was a wet morning. he told drewy he was changing the tape and he didnt see him, well thats what he said at first.
    We were wondering if he did even slow down at all. But thats just my feeling about it and i wasnt there but was at the scene within mins of it happening as drewy was on his my to my house at the time.
